Knowledge-Based News Event Analysis Toolkit

Abstract

We present an overview of our knowledge-based news event analysis toolkit. The toolkit is powered by a knowledge graph (KG) of event-related concepts and relations curated from Wikidata and enriched through knowledge extraction from text as well as a variety of link prediction methods. We describe each of the functions the toolkit provides and an overview of its various components. We present use cases in enterprise risk management, scenario planning, and media intelligence. We also discuss a number of lessons learned and directions for future research.
