A Framework for Haiku Generation from a Narrative

Abstract

The primary goal of this study, which is related to the generation of narratives and haikus, is to create a mutual transformation mechanism between a narrative and a haiku [1]. Previously, the authors had developed an Integrated Narrative Generation System (INGS) [2], and the concept of mutual transformation is based on this background. INGS automatically generates narratives. This system produces a cyclical generation of stories or expressions. The authors have previously presented a method for generating a narrative from a haiku [3]. By analyzing the relationships between a haiku and the interpreted sentences of a haiku, these relationships can be used to obtain new interpreted sentences. We approach haiku generation from two aspects. One is a quantitative method, and the other is a method that uses the structure of a narrative.
