摘要
话题检测与追踪是一种检测新出现的话题并追踪话题发展动态的信息智能获取技术。该技术能把分散的信息有效地汇集并组织起来,从整体上了解一个话题的全部细节以及该话题中事件之间的相关性,在军事和民用方面都具有极其重要的理论和实用意义。本文主要研究新闻话题检测与追踪技术,重点研究网页采集、网页噪声净化、新闻话题检测以及热门话题追踪,取得了如下4个方面的研究成果。
     首先,根据后续处理对网页采集的要求,设计并实现了Web采集器。该采集器在采集过程中进行了Robots协议分析、网页类型判断、新闻网页时间提取,对传统Web采集器的功能进行了扩展。实验证明,该采集器能够对网页信息进行自动采集,并对后续的应用提供充分的支持,具有良好的通用性。
     其次,从网页文本内容的表示方式以及对网页内部噪声的分析两方面入手,提出一种基于向量空间模型的网页噪声净化方法。该算法按照标签将网页内容划分为不同的内容块,从中挑选出网页的主题内容块,根据向量空间模型的内容相似性比较技术对其余内容块进行判断。实验结果表明,无论从噪声净化的准确性还是完整性方面,新方法均优于传统净化方法。
     再次,针对话题检测中事件动态发展可能会导致后继故事判断错误的现象,提出一种基于话题重心自适应的话题检测方法。新方法用命名实体作为特征项来表示话题重心,通过组合初始的话题重心以及每一次动态修正后的话题重心,构建用于检测后继故事的总话题检测器。实验结果表明,该方法有效地降低了漏报率与错报率,提高了话题检测的性能。
     最后,针对训练正例稀疏的问题,提出了一种改进的KNN话题追踪方法。新方法对传统KNN分类方法进行改进并应用于话题追踪,降低了训练反例密集带来的影响;还在话题追踪过程中加入时间窗策略,降低了计算的复杂度。实验结果表明,该方法能有效地克服训练集稀疏的问题,提高了话题追踪的效率,保证话题追踪的稳健性。
Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT in short) is an event-based information organizing task for detecting the appearance of new topics and tracking their reappearance and evolution. Its purpose is to organize information efficiently and help people finding what they want easily. In recent years, it is theoretically and practically valuable in military and other fields. This dissertation studies the models, algorithms and applications of several key research topics of TDT, including web crawler, web noise cleaning, news topic detection and tracking. The major contribution of this dissertation is as follows:
     Firstly, this dissertation designs and realizes a general web crawler to fulfill the demand of the following TDT, where the protocol of Robots is analyzed and web style is classified and the news time is parsed. The experiment shows that the web crawler have nice generality and can automatically download web pages and provide sufficient support for following information applications.
     Secondly, combining the knowledge of noisy information embedded in Web pages with the way of representing web contents, a new algorithm based on VSM for web noise cleaning is presented. The approach divides the web contents into different blocks according to HTML tokens, picks out the topic content and identifies web noise by using the similarity contrast technology between the topic content and the rest of contents. Experiments show that this algorithm excels other traditional methods in integrality and accuracy of the web cleaning.
     Thirdly, a method of topic detection based on adaptive centroid vector is proposed to avoid the shortcoming of current adaptive methods. The new method introduces name entities to represent topic and combines preliminary topic centroid vector with every modified centroid vector for topic detection. Experiments show that the new algorithm lowers the probability of miss and false alarm errors, and improves the performance of topic detection system.
     Finally, considering the sparseness of positive examples, a method of modified KNN-based topic tracking is introduced. The new method modifies traditional KNN classifier for topic tracking and could lessen the side-effect of densely populated negative examples. Furthermore, a time-window is imposed to decrease the complication of topic tracking. Experiment shows that the improved algorithm overcomes the sparseness of training set and enhances stability of topic tracking.
