Plot Extraction and the Visualization of Narrative Flow

In order to facilitate the automated extraction of complex features and structures within narrative, namely plot in this study, two proof-of-concept methods of narrative visualization are presented with the goal of representing the plot of the narrative. Plot is defined to give a basis for quality assessment and comparison. The first visualization presented is a scatter-plot of entities within the story, but due to failing to uphold the definition of plot, in-depth analysis is not performed. The second visualization presented is a graph structure that better represents a mapping of the plot of the story. Narrative structures commonly found within the plot maps are shown and discussed, and comparisons with ground-truth plot maps are made, showing that this method of visualization represents the plot and narrative flow of the stories.
