Abstract

In this paper, we propose a local event detection scheme by analyzing relevant documents in social networks to improve the accuracy of event detection. To detect local events by using geographical data, the proposed scheme embeds them using a geographical data dictionary and generates a weighted keyword graph using social network characteristics. The data left by users in social networks include not only postings but also related documents such as comments and threads. In this way, the proposed scheme detects a local event based on a keyword graph that is constructed through the analysis of the relevant documents. This can improve the accuracy of local event detection by analyzing relevant documents embedded with region-related information using a geographical data dictionary, without requiring users to tag geographic data. In order to verify the superiority of the proposed scheme, we compare it with the existing event detection schemes through various performance evaluations.
