Narrative Mapper
The technology, referred to as the "Narrative Mapper," includes two distinct computer programs that generate visualizations of narrative texts: the Scatter Plot of Entities and the Narrative Flow Graph.
How It Works
Scatter Plot of Entities: This visualization helps users to:
- Partition the story into scenes.
- Mark locations of plot importance.
- Identify the most influential entities in the story.
- Understand when entities are active in the story and with which other entities.
Narrative Flow Graph: This visualization enables users to:
- Infer the story location of scenes where the location is not explicit.
- Decompose events into scenes.
- Track entities through the story by following the scenes they appear in.
- Visualize the overall narrative structure, such as branching or parallel tracks in the story.
- Understand the scenes that are plot-important, including visualizing the story's climax.
