Abstract
Integrated Narrative Generation System (INGS) is a framework for integrating
our previous researches on narrative generation. INGS integrates various
narrative generation modules into an organic architecture. This paper presents
a verb conceptual dictionary and a noun conceptual dictionary to be used
in INGS. Each of the dictionaries has a conceptual hierarchy with single
inheritance by is-a relations. A terminal concept in the verb conceptual
dictionary describes one or more case frame(s), the constraints of the
main elements and a sentence pattern. The basic description of each terminal
concept in the noun conceptual dictionary associates the concept to the
other noun concept. The purpose of the study is not developing general
conceptual dictionaries, but building them as a mechanism in narrative
generation, especially in INGS. Actually, we have combined the two developed
conceptual dictionaries with INGS. In this paper, we will present the basic
mechanisms based on the cooperation of two types of conceptual dictionary
through an implemented narrative generation system, INGS.
