TY - JOUR T1 - Improving the Fitness Function of an Evolutionary Suspense Generator Through Sentiment Analysis JF - IEEE Access Y1 - 2021 A1 - Delatorre, Pablo A1 - León, Carlos A1 - Salguero, Alberto AB - The perception of suspense in stories is affected not only by general literary aspects like narrative structure and linguistic features, but also by anticipation and evocation of feelings like aversion, disgust or empathy. As such, it is possible to alter the feeling of suspense by modifying components of a story that convey these feelings to the audience. Based on a previous straightforward model of suspense adaptation, this paper describes the design, implementation and evaluation of a computational system that adapts narrative scenes for conveying a specific user-defined amount of suspense. The system is designed to address the impact of different types of emotional components on the reader. The relative weighted suspense of these components is computed with a regression model based on a sentiment analysis tool, and used as a fitness function in an evolutionary algorithm. This new function is able to identify the different weights on the prediction of suspense in aspects like outcome, decorative elements, or threat’s appearance. The results indicate that this approach represents a significant improvement over the previous existing approach.
