Abstract
This paper proposes a support interface for remembering events in novels by visualizing time-series information of characters and their existing places. The target users of the proposed interface are people who read multiple novels in parallel. The proposed interface consists of two parts: (a) displaying of novel texts and (b) visualizing of time-series information of character names and their existing places. Given a novel text, the proposed interface extracts character names and places while the Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) is used for the extraction. The proposed interface sets the horizontal axis as the number of the sentence and the vertical axis as characters. The existing places are mapped as labelled dots on the plane given by the two axes. We experimented with participants and verified that the proposed interface could support to remember the events in novels.
