Social media data are constantly updated, numerous, and characteristically prominent. To quickly extract the needed information from the data to address earthquake emergencies, a topic-words detection model of earthquake emergency microblog messages is studied. First, a case analysis method is used to analyze microblog information after earthquake events. An earthquake emergency information classification hierarchy is constructed based on public demand. Then, subject sets of different granularities of earthquake emergency information classification are generated through the classification hierarchy. A detection model of new topic-words is studied to improve and perfect the sets of topic-words. Furthermore, the validity, timeliness, and completeness of the topic-words detection model are verified using 2201 messages obtained after the 2014 Ludian earthquake. The results show that the information acquisition time of the model is short. The validity of the whole set is 96.96%, and the average and maximum validity of single words are 78% and 100%, respectively. In the Ludian and Jiuzhaigou earthquake cases, new topic-words added to different earthquakes only reach single digits in validity. Therefore, the experiments show that the proposed model can quickly obtain effective and pertinent information after an earthquake, and the complete performance of the earthquake emergency information classification hierarchy can meet the needs of other earthquake emergencies.

In this paper, we propose a novel online event discovery model DP-density to capture various events from the social media data. The proposed model can flexibly accommodate the incremental arriving of the social documents in an online manner by leveraging Dirichlet Process, and a density based technique is exploited to deduce the temporal dynamics of events. The spatial patterns of events are also incorporated in the model by a mixture of Gaussians. To remove the bias caused by the streaming process of the documents, Sequential Monte Carlo is used for the parameter inference. Our extensive experiments over two different real datasets show that the proposed model is capable to extract interpretable events effectively in terms of perplexity and coherence.

This article builds on previous research around the exploration of the content of church-related tweets. It does so by exploring whether the qualitative thematic coding of such tweets can, in part, be automated by the use of machine learning. It compares three supervised machine learning algorithms to understand how useful each algorithm is at a classification task, based on a dataset of human-coded church-related tweets. The study finds that one such algorithm, Naïve-Bayes, performs better than the other algorithms considered, returning Precision, Recall and F-measure values which each exceed an acceptable threshold of 70%. This has far-reaching consequences at a time where the high volume of social media data, in this case, Twitter data, means that the resource-intensity of manual coding approaches can act as a barrier to understanding how the online community interacts with, and talks about, church. The findings presented in this article offer a way forward for scholars of digital theology to better understand the content of online church discourse.

Background: Duplicate content often corrupts the filtering mechanism in online question answering. Moreover, as users are usually more comfortable conversing in their native language questions, transliteration adds to the challenges in detecting duplicate questions. This compromises with the response time and increases the answer overload. Thus, it has now become crucial to build clever, intelligent and semantic filters which semantically match linguistically disparate questions. Objective: Most of the research on duplicate question detection has been done on mono-lingual, majorly English Q&A platforms. The aim is to build a model which extends the cognitive capabilities of machines to interpret, comprehend and learn features for semantic matching in transliterated bi-lingual Hinglish (Hindi + English) data acquired from different Q&A platforms. Method: In the proposed DQDHinglish (Duplicate Question Detection) Model, firstly language transformation (transliteration & translation) is done to convert the bi-lingual transliterated question into a mono-lingual English only text. Next a hybrid of Siamese neural network containing two identical Long-term-Short-memory (LSTM) models and Multi-layer perceptron network is proposed to detect semantically similar question pairs. Manhattan distance function is used as the similarity measure. Result: A dataset was prepared by scrapping 100 question pairs from various social media platforms, such as Quora and TripAdvisor. The performance of the proposed model on the basis of accuracy and F-score. The proposed DQDHinglish achieves a validation accuracy of 82.40%. Conclusion: A deep neural model was introduced to find semantic match between English question and a Hinglish (Hindi + English) question such that similar intent questions can be combined to enable fast and efficient information processing and delivery. A dataset was created and the proposed model was evaluated on the basis of performance accuracy. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first reported study on transliterated Hinglish semantic question matching.
