Spatial Nudging: Converging Persuasive Technologies, Spatial Design, and Behavioral Theories

Authors: Ayda Grisiute and Martin Raubal

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 315, 16th International Conference on Spatial Information Theory (COSIT 2024)

Abstract
This paper presents the Spatial Nudging framework - a theory-based framework that maps out nudging strategies in the mobility domain and refines its existing definitions. We link these strategies by highlighting the role of perceived affordances across physical and digital interventions based on the Nudge Theory and the Theory of Affordances. Furthermore, we propose to use graph representation techniques as a supportive methodology to better align perceived and actual environments, thereby enhancing the intervention strategies' effectiveness. We illustrate the applicability of the Spatial Nudging framework and the supportive methodology in the context of an E-bike City vision. This paper lays the foundation for future research on theoretically integrating physical and digital interventions to promote sustainable mobility.

Toward Neurally-Inspired Computational Models of Narrative (Invited Talk)

Authors: Jeffrey M. Zacks

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
In the spirit of the neuroscience theme of this year's meeting, I will describe a set of cognitive and neurophysiological phenomena that are important for the processing of narrative text at the discourse level. Text processing depends on sequential structure in language and also in the events that language describes. Semantic representations of events capture perceptual and motor properties of described situations, leveraging previous lived experience. Although a large number of neural systems are involved in processing narrative text, a constrained subset of systems are selectively engaged by discourse-level processing. To bring these phenomena together, I will present a simple neurally-inspired computational model of visual event processing that may provide a helpful analogy for some features of language processing.

Narrative in the Operations Process (Invited Paper)

Authors: Sohail A. Shaikh and Robert D. Payne

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
To counter the threat posed by adversary information activities, the U.S. Army has developed a new warfighting function, "engagement" which will institutionalize lessons learned over the past decade of warfare. Like mission command, sustainment, intelligence, or other warfighting functions that are critical to the successful prosecution of warfare, the ability to engage a population in a way that is credible, logical and emotional to people is far more likely to compel them to the national will than lethal options. The military as a whole, and more specifically the strategic land forces (consisting of the Army, Marine Corps and U.S. Special Operations Command), are now in the process of determining the best way to implement engagement as a full-fledged function of strategic landpower. This paper will make the case that narrative is one of the key elements of engagement. The past ten years of conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan have taught the U.S. military that future wars of the 21st century will be characterized by low intensity conflicts in increasingly complex environments. In spite of the U.S. military's preponderance of power and overwhelming ability to dominate an adversary in traditional maneuver warfare, resilient insurgencies have demonstrated their potential to successfully conduct asymmetric warfare. This has proven successful, at least in the near term, when employed against U.S. and coalition forces. While the military has consistently fulfilled its responsibility to defeat the enemy's conventional forces and seize, occupy and defend land areas, it has not been as successful in the war of ideologies. We will outline how narrative should align to the military decision making process, and give an example of a successful narrative operation (Voices of Moderate Islam) that can serve as vignette for demonstrating how to conduct a narrative in U.S. led operations. We also make the case for greater academic focus on the topic of narrative in a military context: The acceptance of "engagement" as a function of warfare is still premature so a close cooperation is necessary between the military and academic disciplines that study narrative. Collaborative partnerships with academia will be critical. Finally, we argue that the doctrinal institutionalization of narrative as part of the military decision making process (MDMP) will enable military commanders to effectively achieve the desired goals of national policy.

A Task Based model for Récit Generation from Sensor Data: An Early Experiment

Authors: Belén A. Baez Miranda, Sybille Caffiau, Catherine Garbay, and Francois Portet

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
Automatic story generation is the subject of a growing research effort. However, in this domain, stories are generally produced from fictional data. In this paper, we present a task model used for automatic story generation from real data focusing on the narrative planning. The aim is to generate récits (stories) from sensors data acquired during a ski sortie. The model and some preliminary analysis are presented which suggest the interest of the approach.

A Character Model with Moral Emotions: Preliminary Evaluation

Authors: Cristina Battaglino and Rossana Damiano

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
In literary and drama criticism, emotions, and moral emotions in particular, have been pointed out as one of characterizing features of stories. In this paper, we propose to model story characters as value-based emotional agents, who appraise their own and others' actions based on their desires and values, and feel the appropriate moral emotions in response to narrative situations that challenge their goals and values. In order to validate the appropriateness of the agent model for narrative characters, we ran an experiment with human participants aimed at comparing their expectations about characters' emotions with the predictions of the value-based model of emotional agent. The results of the experiment show that the participants' expectations meet the predictions of the model.

Towards Empathic Neurofeedback for Interactive Storytelling

Authors: Marc Cavazza, Gabor Aranyi, Fred Charles, Julie Porteous, Stephen Gilroy, Ilana Klovatch, Gilan Jackont, Eyal Soreq, Nimrod Jakob Keynan, Avihay Cohen, Gal Raz, and Talma Hendler

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
Interactive Narrative is a form of digital entertainment based on AI techniques which support narrative generation and user interaction. Despite recent progress in the field, there is still a lack of unified models integrating narrative generation, user response and interaction. This paper addresses this issue by revisiting existing Interactive Narrative paradigms, granting explicit status to users' disposition towards story characters. We introduce a novel Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) design, which attempts to capture empathy for the main character in a way that is compatible with filmic theories of emotion. Results from two experimental studies with a fully-implemented system demonstrate the effectiveness of a neurofeedback-based approach, showing that subjects can successfully modulate their emotional support for a character who is confronted with challenging situations. A preliminary fMRI analysis also shows activation during user interaction, in regions of the brain associated with emotional control.

The Need for Multi-Aspectual Representation of Narratives in Modelling their Creative Process

Authors: Pablo Gervás and Carlos León

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
Existing approaches to narrative construction tend to apply basic engineering principles of system design which rely on identifying the most relevant feature of the domain for the problem at hand, and postulating an initial representation of the problem space organised around such a principal feature. Some features that have been favoured in the past include: causality, linear discourse, underlying structure, and character behavior. The present paper defends the need for simultaneous consideration of as many as possible of these aspects when attempting to model the process of creating narratives, together with some mechanism for distributing the weight of the decision processes across them. Humans faced with narrative construction may shift from views based on characters to views based on structure, then consider causality, and later also take into account the shape of discourse. This behavior can be related to the process of representational re-description of constraints as described in existing literature on cognitive models of the writing task. The paper discusses how existing computational models of narrative construction address this phenomenon, and argues for a computational model of narrative explicitly based on multiple aspects.

Model of Narrative Nowness for Neurocinematic Experiments

Authors: Janne Kauttonen, Mauri Kaipainen, and Pia Tikka

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
Cognitive neurosciences have made significant progress in learning about brain activity in situated cognition, thanks to adopting stimuli that simulate immersion in naturalistic conditions instead of isolated artificial stimuli. In particular, the use of films in neuroscientific experiments, a paradigm often referred to as "neurocinematics", has contributed to this success. The use of cinematic stimuli, however, has also revealed a fundamental shortcoming of neuroimaging studies: The lack of conceptual and methodological means to handle the viewers' experience of narrative events in their temporally extended contexts in the scale of full cinematic narrative, not to mention life itself. In order to give a conceptual structure to the issue of temporal contexts, we depart from the "neurophenomenological" approach to time consciousness by neurobiologist Francisco Varela, which in turn builds on Husserl's phenomenology of time. More specifically, we will discuss the experience of narrative tension, determined by backward-looking conceptualizing retention, and forward-looking anticipatory protention. Further, this conceptual structure is built into a preliminary mathematical model, simulating the dynamics of decaying and refreshing memory traces that aggregates a "retentive" perspective for each moment of nowness, which in turn may trigger anticipations for coming events, in terms of Varela and Husserl, protentions. The present tentative mathematical model is constructed using simple placeholder functions, with the intention that they would eventually be replaced by models based on empirical observations on the psychological capabilities that support narrative sensemaking. The final goal is a model that successfully simulates the way how the memory system maintains narrative tension beyond the transient nowness window, and thereby allows mappings to observed brain activity with a rich temporal system of narrative contexts.

Mindreading, Privileged Access and Understanding Narratives

Authors: Szabolcs Kiss and Zoltán Jakab

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
In this paper we first offer a task analysis of the false belief test including the bidirectional relationship between mindreading and language. Following this we present our theory concerning Quinian bootstrapping of the meaning of mental state terms and relate it to the task-analytic framework. Finally we present an experiment on ascribing privileged access through minimal narratives which is intended to serve as a test of our theory.

A Hybrid Representational Proposal for Narrative Concepts: A Case Study on Character Roles

Authors: Antonio Lieto and Rossana Damiano

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 41, 2014 Workshop on Computational Models of Narrative

Abstract
In this paper we propose the adoption of a hybrid approach to the computational representation of narrative concepts, combining prototype-based and ontology-based representations. In particular we focus on the notion of narrative roles. Inspired by the characterization provided by the TvTropes wiki, where narrative devices are discussed across old and new media, we provide a representation of roles based on the integration of a set of typicality-based semantic dimensions (represented by using the Conceptual Spaces framework) with their corresponding classical characterization in terms of necessary and sufficient conditions (represented in terms of Formal Ontologies).
