• Abstract summary: We provide a dataset that enables the creation of learning agents that can build knowledge graph-based world models of interactive narratives. Our dataset provides 24198 mappings between rich natural language observations and knowledge graphs. The training data is collected across 27 games in multiple genres and contains a further 7836 heldout instances over 9 additional games in the test set.

• Abstract: We provide a dataset that enables the creation of learning agents that can build knowledge graph-based world models of interactive narratives. Interactive narratives -- or text-adventure games -- are partially observable environments structured as long puzzles or quests in which an agent perceives and interacts with the world purely through textual natural language. Each individual game typically contains hundreds of locations, characters, and objects -- each with their own unique descriptions -- providing an opportunity to study the problem of giving language-based agents the structured memory necessary to operate in such worlds. Our dataset provides 24198 mappings between rich natural language observations and: (1) knowledge graphs that reflect the world state in the form of a map; (2) natural language actions that are guaranteed to cause a change in that particular world state. The training data is collected across 27 games in multiple genres and contains a further 7836 heldout instances over 9 additional games in the test set. We further provide baseline models using rules-based, question-answering, and sequence learning approaches in addition to an analysis of the data and corresponding learning tasks.

  To interact with humans and act in the world, agents need to understand the range of language that people use and relate it to the visual world. Our key idea is that agents should interpret such diverse language as a signal that helps them predict the future. We instantiate this in Dynalang, an agent that learns a multimodal world model to predict future text and image representations.

  Vision systems to see and reason about the compositional nature of visual scenes are fundamental to understanding our world. The models learned to bridge the gap between such modalities coupled with large-scale training data facilitate contextual reasoning, generalization, and prompt capabilities at test time. The output of such models can be modified through human-provided prompts without retraining, e.g., segmenting a particular object by providing a bounding box, having interactive dialogues by asking questions about an image or video scene or manipulating the robot's behavior through language instructions.

This knowledge graph is then automatically completed utilizing thematic knowledge and used to guide a neural language generation model.
