Story generation is the task of automatically generating a coherent narrative, often from a set of premises or a brief summary.

Most implemented papers

Hierarchical Neural Story Generation

pytorch/fairseq ACL 2018

We explore story generation: creative systems that can build coherent and fluent passages of text about a topic.

A Temporal Variational Model for Story Generation

dwlmt/knowledgeable-stories 14 Sep 2021

Recent language models can generate interesting and grammatically correct text in story generation but often lack plot development and long-term coherence.

Locally Typical Sampling

cimeister/typical-sampling 1 Feb 2022

Automatic and human evaluations show that, in comparison to nucleus and top-k sampling, locally typical sampling offers competitive performance (in both abstractive summarization and story generation) in terms of quality while consistently reducing degenerate repetitions.

GLAC Net: GLocal Attention Cascading Networks for Multi-image Cued Story Generation

tkim-snu/GLACNet 28 May 2018

The task of multi-image cued story generation, such as visual storytelling dataset (VIST) challenge, is to compose multiple coherent sentences from a given sequence of images.

Plan-And-Write: Towards Better Automatic Storytelling

VioletPeng/language-model 14 Nov 2018

Automatic storytelling is challenging since it requires generating long, coherent natural language to describes a sensible sequence of events.

PlotMachines: Outline-Conditioned Generation with Dynamic Plot State Tracking

hrashkin/plotmachines EMNLP 2020

We propose the task of outline-conditioned story generation: given an outline as a set of phrases that describe key characters and events to appear in a story, the task is to generate a coherent narrative that is consistent with the provided outline.

On Faithfulness and Factuality in Abstractive Summarization

google-research-datasets/xsum_hallucination_annotations ACL 2020

It is well known that the standard likelihood training and approximate decoding objectives in neural text generation models lead to less human-like responses for open-ended tasks such as language modeling and story generation.

Transformer-based Conditional Variational Autoencoder for Controllable Story Generation

fangleai/TransformerCVAE 4 Jan 2021

In this paper, we advocate to revive latent variable modeling, essentially the power of representation learning, in the era of Transformers to enhance controllability without hurting state-of-the-art generation effectiveness.

Event Representations for Automated Story Generation with Deep Neural Nets

lara-martin/ASTER 5 Jun 2017

We then present a technique for automated story generation whereby we decompose the problem into the generation of successive events (event2event) and the generation of natural language sentences from events (event2sentence).

A Skeleton-Based Model for Promoting Coherence Among Sentences in Narrative Story Generation

lancopku/Skeleton-Based-Generation-Model EMNLP 2018

Compared to the state-of-the-art models, our skeleton-based model can generate significantly more coherent text according to human evaluation and automatic evaluation.
