Creation, Visualization and Edition of Timelines for Journalistic Use
Abstract
We describe in this article a system for building and visualizing thematic timelines automatically. The input of the system is a set of keywords, together with temporal user-specified boundaries. The output is a timeline graph showing at the same time the chronology and the importance of the events concerning the query. This requires natural language processing and information retrieval techniques, allied to a very specific temporal smoothing and visualization approach. The result can be edited so that the journalist always has the final say on what is finally displayed to the reader.
