IBSEN: Director-Actor Agent Collaboration for Controllable and Interactive Drama Script Generation
Senyu Han, Lu Chen, Li-Min Lin, Zhengshan Xu, Kai Yu·July 01, 2024
Summary
IBSEN is a director-actor agent framework for generating controllable drama scripts using large language models. It allows users to guide the plot through a director agent, who provides plot outlines and objectives, while actor agents role-play characters and adapt to user input. The system ensures character interactions align with the storyline, enabling diverse and coherent script creation while preserving character traits. Experiments demonstrate its effectiveness in generating scripts based on plot objectives, showcasing potential for controlled story generation. The framework is evaluated by comparing it to previous research, highlighting its strengths in interactive drama and character control. However, it faces challenges in complex scenarios and requires further refinement for more nuanced interactions and visual applications.
