• Abstract: Social platforms have emerged as crucial platforms for disseminating information and discussing real-life social events, offering researchers an excellent opportunity to design and implement novel event detection frameworks. However, most existing approaches only exploit keyword burstiness or network structures to detect unspecified events. Thus, they often need help identifying unknown events regarding the challenging nature of events and social data. Social data, e.g., tweets, is characterized by misspellings, incompleteness, word sense ambiguation, irregular language, and variation in aspects of opinions. Moreover, extracting discriminative features and patterns for evolving events by exploiting the limited structural knowledge is almost infeasible. To address these challenges, in this paper, we propose a novel framework, namely EnrichEvent, that leverages the linguistic and contextual representations of streaming social data. In particular, we leverage contextual and linguistic knowledge to detect semantically related tweets and enhance the effectiveness of the event detection approaches. Eventually, our proposed framework produces cluster chains for each event to show the evolving variation of the event through time. We conducted extensive experiments to evaluate our framework, validating its high performance and effectiveness in detecting and distinguishing unspecified social events.

• Double Mixture: Towards Continual Event Detection from Speech [60.33088725100812]
  Speech event detection is crucial for multimedia retrieval, involving the tagging of both semantic and acoustic events. This paper tackles two primary challenges in speech event detection: the continual integration of new events without forgetting previous ones, and the disentanglement of semantic from acoustic events. We propose a novel method, 'Double Mixture,' which merges speech expertise with robust memory mechanisms to enhance adaptability and prevent forgetting.

  We introduce the Speech Event Extraction (SpeechEE) task and construct three synthetic training sets and one human-spoken test set. Compared to event extraction from text, SpeechEE poses greater challenges mainly due to complex speech signals that are continuous and have no word boundaries. Our method brings significant improvements on all datasets, achieving a maximum F1 gain of 10.7%.

  Using Sentiment Analysis to understand the polarity of each message belonging to an event, as well as the entire event, can help to better understand the general and individual feelings of significant trends and the dynamics on online social networks. We propose a new ensemble architecture, EDSA-Ensemble, that uses Event Detection and Sentiment Analysis to improve the detection of the polarity for current events from Social Media.

  Event Extraction (EE) seeks to derive information about specific incidents and their actors from the text. EE is useful in many domains such as building a knowledge base, information retrieval, summarization and online monitoring systems. COfEE consists of two hierarchy levels (event types and event sub-types) that include new categories relating to environmental issues, cyberspace, criminal activity and natural disasters.

  Events are happening in real-world and real-time, which can be planned and organized for occasions, such as social gatherings, festival celebrations, influential meetings or sports activities. Social media platforms generate a lot of real-time text information regarding public events with different topics. However, mining social events is challenging because events typically exhibit heterogeneous texture and metadata are often ambiguous.

Any application that needs to extract structured information about ongoing events from unstructured texts can take advantage of an OED system.
