Abstract

A majority of current work in events extraction assumes the static nature of relationships in constant expertise knowledge bases. However, in collaborative environments, such as Wikipedia, information and systems are extraordinarily dynamic over time. In this work, we introduce a new approach for extracting complex structures of events from Wikipedia. We advocate a new model to represent events by engaging more than one entities that are generalizable to an arbitrary language. The evolution of an event is captured successfully primarily based on analyzing the user edits records in Wikipedia. Our work presents a basis for a singular class of evolution-aware entity-primarily based enrichment algorithms and will extensively increase the quality of entity accessibility and temporal retrieval for Wikipedia. We formalize this problem case and conduct comprehensive experiments on a real dataset of 1.8 million Wikipedia articles in order to show the effectiveness of our proposed answer. Furthermore, we suggest a new event validation automatic method relying on a supervised model to predict the presence of events in a non-annotated corpus. As the extra document source for event validation, we chose the Web due to its ease of accessibility and wide event coverage. Our outcomes display that we are capable of acquiring 70% precision evaluated on a manually annotated corpus. Ultimately, we conduct a comparison of our strategy versus the Current Event Portal of Wikipedia and discover that our proposed WikipEvent along with the usage of Co-References technique may be utilized to provide new and more data on events.

Summary

Introduction

Wikipedia can be considered the biggest online multiple languages encyclopedia.Its widespread extent and good quality of facts elevate Wikipedia as a famous source of information in numerous study topics. Studies that utilize Wikipedia have attracted a lot of research interest over the last years, together with know-how discovery and management, NLP, social-network behavior examine, and so on. Wikipedia as a non-dynamic collection, i.e., the saved records are stable or are hardly ever modified. This is one of the most relevant features of Wikipedia that renders it so successful [1]. In reality, Wikipedia grows very rapidly, with new pages added and modified regularly by a massive global network of engaged participants. This provides incentive for an effective method to research and retrieve information, with attention toward chronological dynamics
