Folktales
Folktales are a characteristically anonymous, timeless, and placeless tale circulated orally among a people.

Humanities work on folktales
• Vladimir Propp (1928): Morphology of the (Russian) folktale story grammars
• Aarne-Thompson-Uther (ATU) index (1910, 1961, 2004): story motifs, hierarchy of folktale types

Folktales Plot graphs Similarity Experiments
Computational work on folktales
• Vaz Lobo & de Matos (2010): latent semantic mapping + clustering 453 fairy tales from Gutenberg.
• Nguyen et al. (2012): classification based on genre, e.g. legend, fairytale, jokes, puzzle, urban legend, etc. using lexical, POS, NE, metadata.
• Nguyen et al. (2013): Ranking based on story types (ATU, Brunvand) using IR, lexical, SVO triplets.
• Karsdorp & van den Bosch (2013): Topic modelling (L-LDA) for multiple labelling of ATU motifs (defined by types).

Folktales as narratives
• Narratives: Focus on sequence of related events structure
• Models of narrative: Turner (1994), Mateas & Stern (2003), Pérez y Pérez & Sharples (2004), etc.

Folktales as narratives
• Narratives: Focus on sequence of related events structure
• Models of narrative: Turner (1994), Mateas & Stern (2003), Pérez y Pérez & Sharples (2004), etc.
• However: Fisseni & Löwe (2012): People tend to focus on motifs & content, less on structure.

Goals of this work
• Construct representations that capture structural & conceptual properties.
• Define similarity metric, use to organize folktales.
• Compare to BoW-based methods wrt. ATU.

Some observation-based heuristics on selecting relations: • Governors of nsubj (nominal subject), expl (expletive “there”), and aux (auxiliary) • Add child if relation(parent,child) not conj, comp, adv, aux, cop, dep, expl, mark

Folktale similarity measurement
p1 & p2 = the two plot graphs being compared α = weighting for action node similarity β = weighting for child node similarity (a1i ,a2i ) = pair of action nodes from alignment of p1 and p2
g = gap penalty (c1i ,c2i ) = pair of child nodes from alignment of p1 and p2
n = alignment length of p1 and p2

Initial experiment
• Determining values for α, β, and g
• For each story, 5 paraphrases manually created: word replacement, sentence structure change, insertion/deletion of phrases & sentences
• Measure similarity between paraphrases & across stories. Maximize difference.

Main experiment: BoW comparison
24 fairy tales from Fairy Books of Andrew Lang, grouped into 5 clusters under ATU (fairy tales):
• Supernatural Adversaries — Bluebeard; Hansel and Gretel; Jack and the Beanstalk; Rapunzel; The Twelve Dancing Princesses.
• Supernatural or Enchanted Relatives — Beauty and the Beast; Brother and Sister; East of the Sun, West of the Moon; Snow White and Rose Red; The Bushy Bride; The Six Swans; The Sleeping Beauty.
• Supernatural Helpers — Cinderella; Donkey Skin; Puss in Boots; Rumpelstiltskin; The Goose Girl; The Story of Sigurd.
• Magic Objects — Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp; Fortunatus and His Purse; The Golden Goose; The Magic Ring.
• Other Stories of the Supernatural — Little Thumb; The Princess and the Pea.
Measure similarity between clusters & across clusters.

Analysis & Discussion
• Errors in automatic construction (dependency parses aren’t really semantic graphs), e.g.: “along came a mouse” vs. “a mouse came”, coreference errors.
• Consistent with Fisseni & Löwe (2012) findings: focus more on content & motifs?
• Combination of plot graph + BoW yields best results.
