Co-occurrence word model for news media hotspot mining-text mining method design

Currently, with the rapid growth of online media, more people are obtaining information from it. However, traditional hotspot mining algorithms cannot achieve precise and fast control of hot topics. Aiming at the problem of poor accuracy and timeliness in current news media hotspot mining methods, this paper proposes a hotspot mining method based on the co-occurrence word model. First, a new co-occurrence word model based on word weight is proposed. Then, for key phrase extraction, a hotspot mining algorithm based on the co-occurrence word model and improved smooth inverse frequency rank (SIFRANK) is designed. Finally, the Spark computing framework is introduced to improve the computing efficiency. The experimental outcomes expresses that the new word discovery algorithm discovered 16871 and 17921 new words in the Weibo Short News and Weibo Short Text datasets respectively. The heat weight values of the keywords obtained by the improved SIFRANK reaches 0.9356, 0.9991, and 0.6117. In the Covid19 Tweets dataset, the accuracy is 0.6223, the recall is 0.7015, and the F1 value is 0.6605. In the President-elects Tweets dataset, the accuracy is 0.6418, the recall is 0.7162, and the F1 value is 0.6767. After applying the Spark computing framework, the running speed has significantly improved. The text mining news media hotspot mining method based on the co-occurrence word model proposed in this study has improved the accuracy and efficiency of mining hot topics, and has great practical significance. ©2024 the Author(s), licensee AIMS Press.
