Zork Reimagined: Interactive Fiction In The Age Of Ai, Aleksey Tikhonov Jul 2024

Zork Reimagined: Interactive Fiction In The Age Of Ai, Aleksey Tikhonov

ELO (Un)linked 2024

Classic interactive fiction has unique charm but faces known limitations; early IF games have complex user interfaces that are not intuitive for new players. They also often fail to understand user commands, leading to immersion-breaking default responses. Modern neural network-based games offer more flexibility but suffer from hallucinations, incoherence, and lack of overarching story structures. To address these issues, we propose a system that combines the strengths of both classic and modern approaches. It transforms the classic game Zork (Blank et al., 1979) into smoother narration with a controllable literary style while preserving the original plot and game logic. It …

UCF Necropsy WSI

Pathologists diagnose biopsy samples with a stained specimen on the glass slide through a microscope. The entire specimen can be stored as a Whole Slide Image (WSI) for further analysis. However, managing and manually diagnosing hundreds of images is time-consuming and requires specific expertise. As a result, there is extensive ongoing research for computer-aided diagnosis of these digitally acquired pathology images. Deep learning has gained significant attention for its effectiveness with disease classification and segmentation of cancer cells from pathology images. For deep learning, a large number of annotated images are needed to build a robust and accurate model. However, …
