Abstract
The integrated narrative generation system (INGS), that the authors have developed, generates a story to translate the story into the surface representation. In the story generation process, the integrated narrative generation system uses narrative knowledge that was automatically acquired from existing narrative works. This paper presents a method to acquire short scripts, which are a kind of narrative knowledge, from existing works in Aozora Bunko for the story generation. This paper presents a mechanism to generate random story-like event sequences by using 23,751,142 bi-gram scripts acquired based on the method proposed below. The authors aim to use the scripts generated by the method as a first set to be revised through the next learning process.
