System and method for news events detection and visualization
View Patent ↗Systems and methods are disclosed for news events detection and visualization. In accordance with one implementation, a method is provided for news events detection and visualization. The method includes, for example, obtaining one or more documents, the one or more documents being grouped into one or more clusters having a score, and the one or more clusters being grouped into one or more megaclusters, presenting information associated with the one or more documents on one or more timelines, wherein the one or more documents are grouped into different megaclusters being presented in a visually distinct way, and filtering the presented information based on the scores associated with the one or more clusters.
1. An electronic device comprising:
one or more computer-readable storage media configured to store instructions; and
one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to cause the electronic device to:
obtain one or more documents, the one or more documents being grouped into one or more clusters having a score, and the one or more clusters being grouped into one or more megaclusters;
present information associated with the one or more documents on one or more timelines, wherein the one or more documents are grouped into different megaclusters being presented in a visually distinct way; and
filter the presented information based on the scores associated with the one or more clusters.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to cause the electronic device to:
based on a selection of one of the megaclusters, present information associated with the one or more clusters grouped into the selected megacluster.
3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to cause the electronic device to:
based on a selection of one of the one or more clusters, present information associated with the one or more documents grouped into the selected megacluster.
4. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to cause the electronic device to:
based on a selection of one of the one or more documents, present contents of the selected documents on a display.
5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to cause the electronic device to:
obtain one or more user inputs;
determine, based on the user inputs, an entity and a data range; and
filter the presented information based on the entity and date range.
6. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to cause the electronic device to:
obtain a new user input;
determine, based on the new user input, an updated entity or an updated date range; and
update the presented information based on the updated entity or the updated date range.
7. A method performed by one or more processors, the method comprising:
obtaining one or more documents, the one or more documents being grouped into one or more clusters having a score, and the one or more clusters being grouped into one or more megaclusters;
presenting information associated with the one or more documents on one or more timelines, wherein the one or more documents are grouped into different megaclusters being presented in a visually distinct way; and
filtering the presented information based on the scores associated with the one or more clusters.
8. The method claim 7 , further comprising:
based on a selection of one of the megaclusters, presenting information associated with the one or more clusters grouped into the selected megacluster.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
based on a selection of one of the one or more clusters, presenting information associated with the one or more documents grouped into the selected megacluster.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
based on a selection of one of the one or more documents, presenting contents of the selected documents on a display.
11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
obtaining a one or more user inputs;
determining, based on the user inputs, an entity and a date range; and
filtering the presented information based on the entity and date range.
12. The method claim 11 , further comprising:
obtaining a new user input;
determining, based on the new user input, an updated entity or an updated date range; and
updating the presented information based on the updated entity or the updated date range.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions that are executable by one or more processors of one or more electronic devices to cause the one or more electronic devices to perform a method, the method comprising:
obtaining one or more documents, the one or more documents being grouped into one or more clusters having a score, and the one or more clusters being grouped into one or more megaclusters;
presenting information associated with the one or more documents on one or more timelines, wherein the one or more documents are grouped into different megaclusters being presented in a visually distinct way; and
filtering the presented information based on the scores associated with the one or more clusters.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , further comprising instructions executable by the one or more electronic devices to cause the one or more electronic devices to perform:
based on a selection of one of the megaclusters, providing for presentation information associated with one or more clusters grouped into the selected megacluster.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14 , further comprising instructions executable by the one or more electronic devices to cause the one or more electronic devices to perform:
based on a selection of one of the one or more clusters, providing for presentation information associated with the one or more documents grouped into the selected megacluster.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions executable by the one or more electronic devices to cause the one or more electronic devices to perform:
based on a selection of one of the one or more documents, providing contents of the selected documents for presentation on a display.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , further comprising instructions executable by the one or more electronic devices to cause the one or more electronic devices to perform:
obtaining a one or more user inputs;
determining, based on the user inputs, an entity and a date range; and
filtering the presented information based on the entity and date range.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , further comprising instructions executable by the one or more electronic devices to cause the one or more electronic devices to perform:
obtaining a new user input;
determining, based on the new user input, an updated entity or an updated date range; and
updating the presented information based on the updated entity or the updated date range.
