Event Detection and Tracking in Social Streams

Sayyadi, Hassan, Hurst, Matthew, Maykov, Alexey·2009·Proceedings of the International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media

Abstract

Events and stories can be characterized by a set of descriptive, collocated keywords. Intuitively, documents describing the same event will contain similar sets of keywords, and the graph of keywords for a document collection will contain clusters individual events. In this paper we build a network of keywords based on their co-occurrence in documents. We propose and develop a new event detection algorithm which creates a keyword graph and uses community detection methods analogous to those used for social network analysis to discover and describe events. Constellations of keywords describing an event may be used to find related articles. We also use the proposed algorithm to analyze events and track stories in social streams.

  • Sayyadi et al. (2009) described an event detection and tracking approach based on keyword graphs, building a graph to detect communities and emerging events, then using event keywords to track new tweets.

    “For instance, Sayyadi et al. (2009) describe an event detection and tracking approach based on keyword graphs.They build a graph of keywords to detect communities and subsequently newly emerging events.They then use the set of keywords associated with an event to track new incoming tweets.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
