Steering Emotional Dynamics for Art Therapy: Controllable Narrative Script Generation through Hierarchically Guided LLM Agents

The paper introduces EC-Script, a novel framework utilizing LLM agents for generating narratives tailored to specific emotional trajectories in art therapy. It employs a hierarchical approach comprising Emotion-Trajectory Planning, Character-Driven Scene Generation, and Emotion-Controlled Script Writing to ensure narratives adhere to predefined emotional patterns. This advancement enhances the emotional controllability of generated scripts, making it a valuable tool for practitioners focused on AI-assisted emotional healing.
