Abstract

Storytelling is a human activity that has been used since ancient times for different purposes and purposes. We generally use story to communicate information, to entertain ourselves, and to teach certain skills. Some of the well-known stories include Beauty and the Beast, The Little Prince, and The Tale of Genji. Storytelling is a very old activity, especially in the developing countries. It’s a very common activity for young children. Traditional storytelling has been replaced now by movies and videos as well as television, the online media and different digital media. Nowadays young children can have access to almost any story in every time and area. Storytelling is also used as a tool for education purposes. In schools, storytelling is used in education of children for different purposes such as socialization, communication, and imagination skill development. Storytelling is used to communicate information in a creative manner. However, creating a story based on specific scenario, especially in the field of Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing is still a very challenging problem. Storytelling is a very creative activity and it’s different from other activities in the field of Artificial Intelligence. Storytelling is not a task that we can solve with a single automated solution. In this review we have studies various existing systems for story generations developed over the time. We also tried to classify those systems into different categories. We provide a detailed review of existing approaches for automatic story generation that uses the different mechanisms such as Prop Theory, Story Grammar, Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. Finally, we have concluded some gaps in the re-search in automatic story generation.
