Event overview
Rafael Pérez y Pérez (Research Professor at Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana at Cuajimalpa, México City) describes and analyses a model for collaborative narrative generation.
In this talk, Rafael Pérez y Pérez introduces the Engagement-Reflection Computer Model of creative writing and describes the main characteristics of MEXICA, a computer agent for plot generation.
He describes a model for collaborative narrative generation, giving details about how two MEXICA agents with different knowledge bases develop a story as a team. He then analyses how such collaboration enrich their knowledge bases and therefore their future options to generate novel plots - and reflects about the benefits of including a social dimension in our research in computational creativity.
