Kaoru Sumi, Mizue Nagata · 2006
This paper describes a system, called Interactive e-Hon, for helping children understand difficult content. It works by transforming text into an easily understandable storybook style with animation and dialogue. In this system, easy-to-understand content is created by a semantic tag generator through natural language processing, an animation generator using an animation achieve and animation tables, a dialogue generator using semantic tag information, and a story generator using the Soar AI engine. Through the results of an experiment, this paper describes the advantages of attracting interest, supporting and facilitating understanding, and improving parent-child communication by using Interactive e-Hon.
