In this paper we present a novel ontology-based model for the representation of the dramatic features of narrative media (video, text, audio, etc.), focused on the notions of the character’s motivated actions. We describe the theoretical background, composed of narratological theories and rational agent theories, that support the proposed ontological formalization. We sketch the ontology and an...

In this paper it is argued that Hintikka’s game theoretical semantics for Independence Friendly logic does not formalize the intuitions about independent choices; it rather is a formalization of imperfect information. Furthermore it is shown that the logic has several strange properties (e.g. renaming of bound variables is not allowed). An alternative semantics is proposed which formalizes intu...

In this paper, we give a combinatorial formalization that describes a wide range of related problems in the theory of tiling derived from the popular game of dominos. We show that determining if a given finite region of the plane can be tiled with a given set of dominos is NP-Complete. The new graph theoretical methods we introduce allow this result to be easily generalized to a variety of simi...
