Social media driven information interface

摘要

One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for populating an information interface based upon social media data. For example, users may post, share, and/or discuss various information through social media sources. Accordingly, social media data may be obtained from such social media sources. The social media data may be grouped into sets of social media data based upon temporal information. Within the sets of social media data, social media entries may be clustered into topic clusters (e.g., a royal wedding topic cluster, a plane crash topic cluster, etc.). Event summaries may be generated for respective topic clusters. The event summaries may be used to populate timeslots of an information interface, such as a calendar or timeline, to create annotated timeslots. In this way, the information interface may provide users with an interactive view of events over a time period, such as a year-in-review, based upon social media data.

主权项

1. A method of improving provision of social media data via a graphical user interface that is physically generated on a hardware display device by a computing device, the method comprising:
obtaining, by the computing device, the social media data from multiple disparate social media sources; identifying, on the computing device, a first set of social media data from the social media data, the first set of social media data corresponding to a first time range; identifying, on the computing device, a first topic cluster from the first set of social media data, the first topic cluster comprising a first social media entry having a first topic similarity above a first topic clustering threshold; generating, on the computing device, a first event summary for the first time range based upon the first topic cluster; physically generating, on the hardware display device, as part of the graphical user interface, an information interface comprising annotated timeslots; and visually populating, on the hardware display device, a first timeslot, associated with the first time range, of the information interface with the first event summary to create a first annotated timeslot; wherein the information interface is a year-in-review interface, comprising annotated timeslots each having a duration of a day, a week or a month, presented in a calendar format.
