LISA: Lexically Intelligent Story Assistant

Abstract

This paper serves as an introduction to building an assistive tool for story writers. Our tool, Lexically Intelligent Story Assistant (or LISA), aims to assist story writers by providing real-time feedback on lexical inconsistencies in the story. LISA analyzes the narrative and builds a knowledge base, using artificial intelligence to make inferences and point out errors in the narrative. Moreover, it also allows the user to interact with the system by querying the knowledge base in natural language form. This tool shows that it is possible to create a database for a narrative and use artificial intelligence to improve authoring of stories.
