Abstract

There is evidence that humans understand how the world goes through narrative. We discuss what it might mean for embodied robots to understand the world, and communicate that understanding, in a similar manner. We suggest an architecture for adding narrative to robot cognition, and an experimental scenario for investigating the narrative hypothesis in a combination of physical and simulated robots.
