• Title: MLD-EA: Check and Complete Narrative Coherence by Introducing Emotions and Actions
• Authors: Jinming Zhang, Yunfei Long,
• Abstract summary: We introduce the Missing Logic Detector by Emotion and Action (MLD-EA) model. It identifies narrative gaps and generates coherent sentences that integrate seamlessly with the story's emotional and logical flow. This work fills a gap in NLP research and advances border goals of creating more sophisticated and reliable story-generation systems.

• Abstract: Narrative understanding and story generation are critical challenges in natural language processing (NLP), with much of the existing research focused on summarization and question-answering tasks. While previous studies have explored predicting plot endings and generating extended narratives, they often neglect the logical coherence within stories, leaving a significant gap in the field. To address this, we introduce the Missing Logic Detector by Emotion and Action (MLD-EA) model, which leverages large language models (LLMs) to identify narrative gaps and generate coherent sentences that integrate seamlessly with the story's emotional and logical flow. The experimental results demonstrate that the MLD-EA model enhances narrative understanding and story generation, highlighting LLMs' potential as effective logic checkers in story writing with logical coherence and emotional consistency. This work fills a gap in NLP research and advances border goals of creating more sophisticated and reliable story-generation systems.

  Early detection of neurocognitive disorders (NCDs) is crucial for timely intervention and disease management. Traditional narrative analysis often focuses on local indicators in microstructure, such as word usage and syntax. We propose to investigate specific cognitive and linguistic challenges by analyzing topical shifts, temporal dynamics, and the coherence of narratives over time.

  We investigate the causal reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs) through the representative problem of inferring causal relationships from narratives. We find that even state-of-the-art language models rely on unreliable shortcuts, both in terms of the narrative presentation and their parametric knowledge.

  This paper investigates the capability of LLMs in storytelling, focusing on narrative development and plot progression. We introduce a novel computational framework to analyze narratives through three discourse-level aspects. We show that explicit integration of discourse features can enhance storytelling, as is demonstrated by over 40% improvement in neural storytelling.

  Narrative understanding involves capturing the author's cognitive processes, providing insights into their knowledge, intentions, beliefs, and desires. Although large language models (LLMs) excel in generating grammatically coherent text, their ability to comprehend the author's thoughts remains uncertain. This hinders the practical applications of narrative understanding.
