Homework 3: Plot Graph Generation

Instructions

In the paper Crowdsourcing Narrative Intelligence, Li et al. created the Scheherazade algorithm to generate plot graphs from a collection of crowdsourced stories. Head over to the Colab Notebook for more information on what you’ll be doing.

What to Submit

  1. An IPython notebook called HW3-plot.ipynb that runs your plot graph implementation.
  2. A document (doc/docx, txt, pdf) that has your answers to the questions found at the end of the notebook.
  3. Two graph files: one named plotgraph.html that is your final (initialized, pruned, & improved) plot graph using your clusters, one named gold.html using the clusters from Part 2.

If you decide to do the extra credit, please submit a file for that graph as well: ec.html. You may include your answers to the questions in your document under a section labeled “Extra Credit”.

Submissions should be done on Gradescope.

Grading

  • Implementation of the Scheherazade algorithm - 15 points
  • Answers to questions - 10 points
  • Graph files - 5 points
  • Extra Credit - 5 points
