Designing an ontology for artificial intelligence in the narrative arts

摘要

We propose a discussion on developing a comprehensive ontology for use in Al-based narrative systems. The ontology should be applicable across art disciplines and flexible enough to accommodate possible future uses of computer media in the arts. In this paper we describe some fragments of such an ontology in more detail as a springboard for discussion. We focus on aspects related to narrative production over content. Also, the upper-levels of the ontology are intended to abstract away from media-specific features.
