Abstract

An aggregation service aggregates discussions of events and topics within a given subject area using seed search queries, seed URLs, and / or search engine data. A subject area is selected and a set of seed search queries and / or seed URLs relevant to that subject area are manually generated. The set of seed search queries and / or seed URLs are used to identify URLs containing content relevant to the subject area. The URLs are crawled at given intervals to identify content items, which are analyzed using a classifier to identify content items relevant to the subject area. The content items are grouped into clusters surrounding events and / or topics within the subject area. The various clusters are ranked against one another to facilitate ordering clusters for presentation to end-users.

Description

Background technique [0001] Users are often interested in specific subject areas and want in-depth coverage of events and discussions of topics within those subject areas. However, it is often difficult for users to quickly discover this information. In some cases, a user may attempt to employ a search engine to search for discussions of events and topics within a given subject area. This requires a user to submit a search query to a search engine to receive search results. Typically, search engines return a large number of documents or web page addresses, and then leave it to the user to sift through this list of documents, links, and associated information to discover events or topics within the subject area. This process is cumbersome, frustrating, and time-consuming for users, and as a result, it is an inefficient way for users to discover events and discussions of topics within a subject area of ​​interest. [0002] Various services currently exist that aggregate discu...
