Hitch haiku: an interactive generation system of haiku

Published: 13 June 2007 Publication History

Abstract

The theme of our research is "Cultural Computing", which means of cultural translation using scientific methods to represent essentcial aspects of Japanese culture. We study reproducing a traditional Japanese haiku of by computer. Our system condenses an essence of a book into a Haiku, a Japanese minimal poem form. A user chooses arbitrary phrases from a chapter of a famous Japanese essay called "1000 Books and 1000 Nights," which introduces 1000 books covering many genres from all over the world. Then the system generates a Haiku by using the corpus of the essay and several databases dedicated for Haiku generation, then transfers it into English. Thus even foreigners can catch the essence of the book.
