Virtual agents are gaining popularity as conversational agents who can engage with their human users in a dialogue to answer queries and to find the necessary support in the performance of some tasks in a particular application domain. For virtual agents to be able to share stories with their human users, specially the children, they need to be provided with a body of knowledge to use in their dialogue. In this paper, we describe our approach in building an ontology to provide a knowledge base of commonsense concepts and their relations to a virtual agent. This is then used by a virtual agent to process user input as a form of story text, and to generate appropriate responses in order to encourage the child to share his/her story. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2018. 2018-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/faculty_research/2830 Faculty Research Work Animo Repository Intelligent agents (Computer software) Storytelling Computer fiction Computational linguistics Computer Sciences Software Engineering |
