Abstract

Chat is one of basic features in current virtual world communication. So tracking of chat dialogue is an important issue. However most chat programs only provide textual history transcripts based on the temporal sequence, without any explicit relationship tags. In this poster, we propose a novel data structure, Chatting Flow Graph (CFG)[6] which keeps track of the all chatting dialogues among virtual agents. On this CFG we newly propose one visualization method for managing Chat Dialog efficiently and hierarchically.
