Narrative is one of the oldest creative forms, capable of depicting a wide spectrum of human conditions. However, many existing stories generated by planning-based computational narrative systems are confined to the goal-driven, problem-solving aesthetics.

To date, recurrent neural networks that learn language models at character, word, or sentence levels have had liŠle success generating co...

Physics is sometimes discussed as being a second where common words are coded specific alternate definitions (consider how you use word “delta”). Furthermore, our English Language Learners. Thus, providing developmentally appropriate assistan...
