Guidelines
The thesis aims to explore automatic generation of theatre scenarios and automatic verification whether they meet predetermined requirements using appropriate metrics.
The generation of scenarios will presumably rely on large language models (LLMs), using off-the-shelf and/or fine-tuned models.
The metrics will focus on the evaluation of various formal aspects of the outputs (rather than the subjective evaluation of quality), such as consistency in the actions of the characters, adherence to the structure of the plot or genre coherence. The work will focus on the investigation of existing metrics that are used to evaluate text generative models and their adaptation or development of new metrics for the specific needs of theatre plays.
Various settings of scenario generation will be experimented with, including open-ended assignments (allowing rather free creation) as well as more restricted assignments (e.g. defining genre, character characteristics, or thematic constraints).
The optimal result of the work would be an experimental system using the metrics to generate a scenario in a controlled manner, thus ensuring that the result matches the required specifications.
