Abstract
In this work we utilize the social messages to construct an extensible event ontology model for learning the experiences and knowledge to cope with emerging real-world events. We develop a platform combining several text mining and social analysis algorithms to cooperate with our stream mining approach to detecting large-scale disastrous events from social messages, in order to achieve the aim of automatically constructing event ontology for emergency response First, we employ the developed event detection technique on Twitter social-messages to monitor the occurrence of emerging events, and record the development and evolution of detected events. Furthermore, we store the messages associated with the detected events in a repository. Through the developed algorithms for analyzing the content of social messages and ontology construction the event ontology can be established, allowing for developing relevant applications for prediction of possible evolution and impact evaluation of the events in the future immediately, in order to achieve the goals for early warning of disasters and risk management.
