Abstract

VISTAs (Virtual Interactive Story Telling Agents) interact with users through natural language query/answer patterns derived from the analysis of narrative content developed from multimedia. This paper describes the rationale for agent development, their software components, and the overall architecture for VISTAs, which are used as a form of high-level dialog manager to provide information retrieval for educational and entertainment purposes.
