Abstract [en]
We have here suggested a structured procedure for evaluating artificially produced improvisational theatre dialogue. We have, in addition, provided some examples of dialogues generated within the evaluation framework suggested. Although the end goal of a bot that produces improvisational theatre should be to perform against human actors, we consider the task of having two improv-bots perform against each other as a setting for which it is easier to carry out a reliable evaluation. To better approximate the end goal of having two independent entities that act against each other, we suggest that these two bots should not be allowed to be trained on the same training data. In addition, we suggest the use of the two initial dialogue lines from human-written dialogues as input for the artificially generated scenes, as well as to use the same human-written dialogues in the evaluation procedure for the artificially generated theatre dialogues. © 2018 CEUR-WS.
