Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Despite the significant efforts made by the research community in recent years, automatically acquiring valuable information about high impact-events from social media remains challenging. We present EVIDENSE, a graph-based approach for finding high-impact events (such as disaster events) in social media. Our evaluation shows that our method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches for the same problem, in terms of having higher precision, lower number of duplicates, while providing a keyword-based description that is succinct and informative.
