Building the Semantic Similarity Model for Social Network Data Streams

Abstract

This paper proposes the model for searching similar collocations in English texts in order to determine semantically connected text fragments for social network data streams analysis. The logical-linguistic model uses semantic and grammatical features of words to obtain a sequence of semantically related to each other text fragments from different actors of a social network. In order to implement the model, we leverage Universal Dependencies parser and Natural Language Toolkit with the lexical database WordNet. Based on the Blog Authorship Corpus, the experiment achieves over 0.92 precision.
