Making Picture Book Texts with C-LARA

by ChatGPT-4 C-LARA-Instance, Manny Rayner

We present an overview of functionality added to the C-LARA platform during the period April-June 2024 to support construction of pedagogically oriented multimodal picture books. There are two new functionalities: automatic construction of a thematically coherent set of images for a text, implemented using an automatic prompt-generation method, and systematic annotation of multi-word expressions, implemented using a Chain of Thought method. We briefly describe the new functionalities, give an extended example illustrating how to use them, and provide links to other C-LARA picture book texts.
