Automatic Generation Algorithm of Movie and TV Scripts Based on ChatGPT

A movie or TV script is a meticulously crafted document that serves as the blueprint for a visual storytelling project. It outlines the dialogue, actions, and scene descriptions that will unfold on screen, guiding actors, directors, and crew members in bringing the story to life. Each script is divided into scenes and acts, with clear instructions on character entrances and exits, camera angles, and pacing. This paper introduces a novel framework for enhancing the quality of movie and TV scripts through the integration of the Combinational Multi-Stage Genetic Optimization (CMSGO) model with ChatGPT, a state-of-the-art language generation model. The CMSGO model utilizes iterative optimization techniques to systematically refine and enhance script elements such as coherence, dialogue flow, character development, and overall narrative structure. The proposed CMSGO model comprises the Combinational model with the genetic optimization function. The function CMSGO model examines the fitness function with the Multi-Stage Optimization process. The proposed CMSGO model uses the estimation of features in the Multi-stage optimization model with the computation of features related to the scripts. Through 20 generations of optimization, the CMSGO model demonstrates its effectiveness in improving script quality, as evidenced by a steady increase in average script quality scores. Additionally, the multi-stage optimization approach targets specific aspects of script quality, allowing for targeted adjustments to parameters related to character motivations, plot coherence, and tone. Viewer opinions further validate the efficacy of the generated scripts, with positive evaluations across various aspects such as audience engagement, coherence, emotional impact, and originality. The proposed framework offers a robust and data-driven approach to scriptwriting, enabling the creation of high-quality movie and TV scripts that captivate and resonate with audiences, thus enriching the overall viewing experience.

A new approach to cultural scripts of trauma sequelae assessment: The sample case of Switzerland.

The novel concept of cultural scripts of trauma sequelae captures culture-specific expressions of posttraumatic distress (e.g., cognitive, emotional, interpersonal, psychosomatic changes) and their temporal associations. Cultural scripts of trauma sequelae complement pan-cultural (etic) diagnoses, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and Complex PTSD, as well as the cultural syndromes concept. This study aimed to develop the cultural scripts of trauma inventory (CSTI) for German-speaking Switzerland and to explore temporal associations of script elements. Five semi-structured focus groups were conducted with psychotraumatologists (n = 8) and Swiss trauma survivors (n = 7). The interview schedule included open questions about different domains of potential posttraumatic changes (emotions, cognitions, worldviews, interpersonal relationships, body-related experiences, behavior, and growth). Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. The Swiss CSTI includes 57 emic elements that represent salient trauma sequelae (30 conformed with a theoretically derived item pool, 27 were newly phrased). Temporal script associations were visualized in a network, whereby self-deprecation, the urge to function and overcompensate, and the urge to hide and endure suffering had the highest number of connections. While many posttraumatic changes identified in the present work seem to mirror pan-cultural phenomena represented in the Complex PTSD concept (e.g., self-deprecation), others (e.g., urge to function and perform, urge to hide and endure suffering) may be prominently related to Swiss culture with its value orientations. Knowledge about cultural scripts of trauma sequelae may provide a culture-specific framework that can help to understand individual experiences of distress and enable mental health practitioners to administer culturally sensitive interventions. Pending further validation, the Swiss CSTI bears the potential to advance culture-sensitive assessment of trauma sequelae.

Design and Modification of COVID-19 Case Investigation and Contact Tracing Interview Scripts Used by Health Departments Throughout the COVID-19 Pandemic.

We sought to (1) document how health departments (HDs) developed COVID-19 case investigation and contact tracing (CI/CT) interview scripts and the topics covered, and (2) understand how and why HDs modified those scripts. Qualitative analysis of CI/CT interview scripts and in-depth key informant interviews with public health officials in 14 HDs. Collected scripts represent 3 distinct points (initial, the majority of which were time stamped May 2020; interim, spanning from September 2020 to August 2021; and current, as of April 2022). Fourteen state, local, and tribal health jurisdictions and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Thirty-six public health officials involved in leading CI/CT from 14 state, local, and tribal health jurisdictions (6 states, 3 cities, 4 counties, and 1 tribal area). Interview script elements included in CI/CT interview scripts over time. Many COVID-19 CI/CT scripts were developed by modifying questions from scripts used for other communicable diseases. Early in the pandemic, scripts included guidance on isolation/quarantine and discussed symptoms of COVID-19. As the pandemic evolved, the length of scripts increased substantially, with significant additions on contact elicitation, vaccinations, isolation/quarantine recommendations, and testing. Drivers of script changes included changes in our understanding of how the virus spreads, risk factors and symptoms, new treatments, new variants, vaccine development, and adjustments to CDC's official isolation and quarantine guidance. Our findings offer suggestions about components to include in future CI/CT efforts, including educating members of the public about the disease and its symptoms, offering mitigation guidance, and providing sufficient support and resources to help people act on that guidance. Assessing the correlation between script length and number of completed interviews or other quality and performance measures could be an area for future study.

Toward Cultural Scripts of Trauma Sequelae

The concept of cultural scripts has proven to be very useful for describing depression-like psychological complaints in different cultural regions of the world. The article presents the galaxy model and its implementation in the model of cultural scripts theoretically for the first time and connects these with cultural psychological value research. A new, extensive series of research projects aims to investigate post-trauma -related psychological complaints in various regions of the world. The work in two countries/regions began with focus groups in which elements of cultural scripts were collected by traumatized clients and/or by (therapeutic) experts. For this purpose, a theory-based framework of possible post-traumatic script elements was provided. In Switzerland, focus groups were conducted with patients and experts. Focus groups were conducted with genocide survivors and other trauma victims in Rwanda and three East African countries. The evaluation was semi-quantitative. In Switzerland, around 50 symptoms and changes were mentioned as script elements (e. g. still having to function). Approximately 100 symptoms and changes were mentioned as script elements in East Africa (e. g. loss of dignity). The first temporal connections (i. e. strong scripts) were found for the Swiss scripts (e. g. self-devaluation - urge to function). In the East African study, cultural value orientations underlying the script groupings were also assessed (e. g. community reputation). The illustrative results presented here demonstrate the galaxy model and the suitability of the cultural script concept for recording the effects of trauma. There are differences and similarities in the two world regions examined so far. Further steps at the two study sites will be the temporal connections and the relationships to value orientations. The studies will be started at the other study sites in the following years.

LegalHTML: Semantic mark-up of legal acts using web technologies

We introduce here LegalHTML, an extension of the HTML language thought for representing legal acts. LegalHTML has been conceived in the context of an exploratory study conducted for the Publications Office of the European Union, with the objective of overcoming the proliferation of formats for the electronic redaction of legal acts, dedicated to different steps of the editorial process (e.g. first draft, content editing, proof reading, introducing semantics, publishing) and of realizing a model and a language that could bind all processes and exigencies under a common umbrella. LegalHTML satisfies these requirements by providing an explicit domain language addressing all structural aspects of an act, such as articles, paragraphs, items, references and an associated ontology (foreseeing both inline annotations through RDFa and explicit RDF code within script elements) providing rich semantics to describe the editorial and jurisdictional history of the act and to insert references to entities of the domain. Being based on HTML, presentation is also offered by the same language, an aspect missing from all most notable standards for the legal domain. Furthermore, LegalHTML addresses consolidation of an act and its subsequent modifications into a single document using a tree-based representation of the original content and of its modified versions. Finally, alongside the language & ontology, we implemented a CSS stylesheet for the default rendering of LegalHTML documents and a JavaScript file imbuing documents with an API supporting TOC generation, footnote cross-references and the said point-in-time visualization of consolidated legal acts.

Motorcyclists’ risky riding scripts: Schematic representations of error and violation behavior

Cognitive aspects play a crucial role in inciting motorcyclists to perform risky riding behaviors. Unfortunately, research on the contribution of scripts as a cognitive factor that facilitates decision making related to riding behavior is lacking. Through two studies, the current research attempted to investigate the roles of different expected events within a rider’s script that lead to risky riding behaviors, particularly lane-splitting, dangerous overtaking, and wrong-way riding. In Study 1, an interview was conducted with motorcyclists to identify the elements in a rider’s script that relate to lane-splitting behavior, dangerous overtaking, and wrong-way riding, within the contexts of both pro-risk and anti-risk riding situations. Subsequently, in Study 2, a survey was administered to motorcyclists to determine the elements of a script with the strongest bearing on a rider’s decision to perform lane-splitting, dangerous overtaking, and wrong-way riding. Findings from Studies 1 and 2 suggest that in certain riding situations, estimates of distance and width of gap between vehicles are the primary script elements with the greatest weight of importance in lane-splitting and dangerous overtaking. With regard to wrong-way riding, road situation and condition, as well as police presence, were the script elements found to have the greatest weight of importance in the performance of the behavior. Based on these results, the intervention for reducing risky riding behavior should use a different approach based on the nature and conception of each risky riding script.

Types of Balinese Script Block Structure using Symbol Block Analysis

The research aimed to examine the existence of Balinese script block structure types in the Balinese Latin script dictionary to make it easy and correct to read Balinese script. The Balinese language was encountering an urgent crisis in poor intergenerational speaker transmission, the emergence of the stigma of reading Balinese script was very difficult, and the actual use of Balinese script was increasingly narrow and limited. The research applied qualitative methods as a reference method in completing research. The research instrument used observation, documentation, and writing methods as data collection methods. The types of Balinese script block structures found in the Balinese Latin script dictionary of the 21 most used entries are (1) V-CV-CC, (2) V-CCV-CC, (3) CV-CV-CC, (4) CV-C, (5) V-CCV. The concept of the syllabogram block structure differs from the phonological syllables in the Balinese script writing system. The syllabogram shows block breaks, while the phonological syllables are based on loudness level. Understanding these differences makes it easier to read Balinese script, which is different from Latin script. The research proves the application of the concept of Balinese script block structure types to relevant Balinese script elements based on the concept of syllables as a reference for reading and writing Balinese script. The research provides a reference and guide in reading, writing, and transliterating Balinese script into Latin script with adequate concepts and theories.

Fairy Tales, Roles and Script

The article analyzes the possibilities of using fairy tales, myths, legends in working with the life script. The possibilities of such work are presented on the example of using methodology Life scripts in fairy-tale roles, developed by the author. It is a method of working with clients. The fairy tale as a tool of psychological work gives us the opportunity to explore elements of clients life script in a gentle way and reduce clients resistance. This method allows us to structure our work with life scripts through acquaintance with a fairy-tale character and reveals the key script elements for both the psychologist and the client.

Thus, it can be concluded that the PQ4R Model can have an influence on the ability to analyze the elements of drama script for grade XI students of SMA Negeri 3 Lubuklinggau.

Discourse Analysis toward News Texts on Fire Extinguishing Service of Kupang City in the Printed Mass Media of Timor Express

This article examines news text on fire extinguishing of Kupang city in Timor Express to analyze its macro structure, super structure, micro structure and to describe the cognition and social context realized in it. I collected the data by taking the news texts of Timor Express purposively. Additionally I interviewed the editorial chief of the electronic mass media of the Timor Express to verify the data accuracy and to reach a deep understanding in enabling to provide details of the cognition and social contexts implicitly realised in the news text construction on fire extinguishing in the printed mass media of Timor Express. Results showed that the text structure of the Kupang City fire extinguishing service in Timor Express daily news consists of macro-structure, super-structure, and micro-structure. For the level of superstructure, in general Timor Express formulates headlines followed by leads consisting of script elements, which can be identified as: what, when, and who elements. Meanwhile, element why and how elements are in the news content (story). Macro structure is a thematic form of the Kupang city fire extinguishing service news text. The micro structure consists of semantics, syntactic, stylistic, rhetoric. In the microstructure of the news of the Kupang City fire service, the use of words that pointed to or reinforced news messages about the fire disaster that received fire services for the City of Kupang was found. In terms of social cognition, the aspect is realized in the form of journalists' mental awareness of a fire disaster that received services from the Kupang City fire service department. Timor Express journalists consider that fire is an unpredictable humanitarian disaster whose effects bring material losses in life. The social context relates to how a meaning is shared together. In accordance with the news text of the fire extinguishing service contains news of a fire accident and getting fire services from Kupang City.

Black Tax: Understanding the financial transfers of the emerging black middle class

ABSTRACTThis study examines the ways in which the emerging black middle class make financial transfers to their direct and indirect families. The colloquial term in South Africa for this phenomenon is Black Tax. This study specifically focuses on understanding the lived experience of those making financial transfers. The methodology involved a questionnaire (n = 118) and six interviews. The main findings are that the transfers are substantive and most often spent on general expenditure and education. Transactions are to both urban and rural recipients and generally occur monthly. Those transferring money are dissatisfied with their own savings’ levels. The study demonstrates the applicability of the remittance script framework. Those transferring money blend script elements of obligation, repayment, help, blackmail, pooling and allowances. The study demonstrates the economic, social and personal significance of these transfers. It builds the foundation for further research on the social and economic aspects.

How to Train Your Browser

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is one of the most common web application vulnerabilities. It is therefore sometimes referred to as the “buffer overflow of the web.” Drawing a parallel from the current state of practice in preventing unauthorized native code execution (the typical goal in a code injection), we propose a script whitelisting approach to tame JavaScript-driven XSS attacks. Our scheme involves a transparent script interception layer placed in the browser’s JavaScript engine. This layer is designed to detect every script that reaches the browser, from every possible route, and compare it to a list of valid scripts for the site or page being accessed; scripts not on the list are prevented from executing. To avoid the false positives caused by minor syntactic changes (e.g., due to dynamic code generation), our layer uses the concept of contextual fingerprints when comparing scripts. Contextual fingerprints are identifiers that represent specific elements of a script and its execution context. Fingerprints can be easily enriched with new elements, if needed, to enhance the proposed method’s robustness. The list can be populated by the website’s administrators or a trusted third party. To verify our approach, we have developed a prototype and tested it successfully against an extensive array of attacks that were performed on more than 50 real-world vulnerable web applications. We measured the browsing performance overhead of the proposed solution on eight websites that make heavy use of JavaScript. Our mechanism imposed an average overhead of 11.1% on the execution time of the JavaScript engine. When measured as part of a full browsing session, and for all tested websites, the overhead introduced by our layer was less than 0.05%. When script elements are altered or new scripts are added on the server side, a new fingerprint generation phase is required. To examine the temporal aspect of contextual fingerprints, we performed a short-term and a long-term experiment based on the same websites. The former, showed that in a short period of time (10 days), for seven of eight websites, the majority of valid fingerprints stay the same (more than 92% on average). The latter, though, indicated that, in the long run, the number of fingerprints that do not change is reduced. Both experiments can be seen as one of the first attempts to study the feasibility of a whitelisting approach for the web.

DISCURSOS, PRÁTICAS ORGANIZATIVAS E PICHAÇÃO EM BELO HORIZONTE

RESUMOA cidade tem sido encarada tradicionalmente na administração sob a ótica funcionalista, ao ser entendida como campo de atuação profissional ou objeto da administração pública e gestão urbana. Todavia, estudos que versam sobre a urbe em uma perspectiva não funcionalista têm se tornado cada vez mais recorrentes, principalmente a partir de uma visão que focaliza a complexidade urbana e evoca a vida social organizada de indivíduos e grupos oprimidos em diversos âmbitos sociais. Neste artigo, buscamos analisar os discursos que orientam práticas organizativas relacionadas à pichação em Belo Horizonte, o que foi feito mediante um estudo qualitativo baseado em análise do discurso. Além de pesquisa em documentos oficiais sobre as ações governamentais no combate à pichação, foram efetuadas entrevistas individuais em profundidade com nove sujeitos, entre gestores públicos municipais responsáveis pelo combate à pichação, indivíduos da sociedade civil participantes das ações do projeto municipal e representantes da pichação belo-horizontina. O tratamento dos dados foi efetuado por meio da análise francesa do discurso, pela qual se buscou a identificação e análise de aspectos e elementos discursivos segundo roteiro constituído por: 1. seleções lexicais; 2. percursos semânticos; 3. interdiscursividades; 4. discursos principais; 5. reflexão e refração linguísticas; 6. aspectos ideológicos combatidos e defendidos; e 7. posicionamentos discursivos em relação aos discursos hegemônicos na sociedade. Os principais resultados sugerem que o governo da cidade tanto orienta as representações de combate à pichação como é pressionado para enfrentar o fenômeno segundo os vários modos de fazer, pelos quais imperam os instrumentos de controle sobre as práticas de organização da cidade e se instituem agentes sociourbanos de legitimação estratégica. Conclui-se que a gestão pública é ressignificada pelos distintos atores sociais, em particular pelos pichadores, que adotam uma espécie de ética do picho, que antagoniza o programa da prefeitura, à conduta policial e ao pensamento dominante sobre a pichação e os pichadores, manifestando sua posição por meio da pichação.

Cultural Scripting for Forever Wars

In conjunction with his previous analysis of war as a violent transactional game, the author explores the thesis that such violent conflict might be tied to an underlying cultural script transmitted across generations. He highlights the need for cultural leaders to be aware of the unacknowledged, or unconscious, level of this script, which, if made transparent, might help to facilitate peaceful resolution of these conflicts. He uses the United States as a case example to show how there may have been cultural script elements supporting the continuing use of military interventions and offers a case example of the scripting of a U.S. soldier. In his review of variables that may support his premise, he uses a historical perspective to review cultural narratives and related script beliefs in the war zone as well as a survey of script reinforcers. Some concluding reflections on how transactional analysts can help to de-script war are offered.

Skew Detection/Correction and Local Minima/Maxima Techniques for Extracting a New Arabic Benchmark Database

We propose a set of techniques for extracting a new standard benchmark database for Arabic handwritten scripts. Thresholding, filtering, and skew detection/correction techniques are developed as a pre-processing step of the database. Local minima and maxima using horizontal and vertical histogram are implemented for extracting the script elements of the database. Elements of the database contain pages, paragraphs, lines, and characters. The database divides into two major parts. The first part represents the original elements without modifications; the second part represents the elements after applying the proposed techniques. The final database has collected, extracted, validated, and saved. All techniques are tested for extracting and validating the elements. In this respect, ACDAR proposes a first issue of the Arabic benchmark databases. In addition, the paper confirms establishment a specialized research-oriented center refers to learning, teaching, and collaboration activities. This center is called "Arabic Center for Document Analysis and Recognition (ACDAR)" which is similar to other centers developed for other languages such as English.

A measurement study of insecure javascript practices on the web

JavaScript is an interpreted programming language most often used for enhancing webpage interactivity and functionality. It has powerful capabilities to interact with webpage documents and browser windows, however, it has also opened the door for many browser-based security attacks. Insecure engineering practices of using JavaScript may not directly lead to security breaches, but they can create new attack vectors and greatly increase the risks of browser-based attacks. In this article, we present the first measurement study on insecure practices of using JavaScript on the Web. Our focus is on the insecure practices of JavaScript inclusion and dynamic generation, and we examine their severity and nature on 6,805 unique websites. Our measurement results reveal that insecure JavaScript practices are common at various websites: (1) at least 66.4% of the measured websites manifest the insecure practices of including JavaScript files from external domains into the top-level documents of their webpages; (2) over 44.4% of the measured websites use the dangerous eval() function to dynamically generate and execute JavaScript code on their webpages; and (3) in JavaScript dynamic generation, using the document.write() method and the innerHTML property is much more popular than using the relatively secure technique of creating script elements via DOM methods. Our analysis indicates that safe alternatives to these insecure practices exist in common cases and ought to be adopted by website developers and administrators for reducing potential security risks.

Associations between Anxiety and Love Scripts

Relations between trait anxiety and love scripts expressed in narratives were examined to assess how anxiety affects the perception of love. Stories about love (N = 160) written by 80 men and 80 women were analyzed. The content of the scripts was evaluated in terms of descriptions of actors, partners, expressed emotions of actor and of partner, importance of love, and the ending of the scenario. To test the differences between men and women on content of scripts and associations between trait anxiety level and frequencies of love script elements, a two-way analysis of variance was used. The main effect for sex was significant. There was an effect of trait anxiety on content of love scripts: high anxiety was associated with more frequent negative descriptions of the actor as well as more frequent negative descriptions of the partner's emotions, only in scripts written by women.
