Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We present the EKNOT system that automatically discovers major events from online news articles, connects each event to its discussion in Twitter, and provides a comprehensive summary of the events from both news media and social media s point of view. EKNOT is built on real-time crawled news articles and tweets, allowing users to explore the dynamics of major events with minimal delays.

Pseudocode No No pseudocode or clearly labeled algorithm block was found in the paper.
Open Source Code No No explicit statement or link providing access to the open-source code for the described methodology was found.
Open Datasets No The paper mentions using 'real-time crawled news articles and tweets' and crawling data from 'Google news' and 'twitter API'. However, it does not provide concrete access information (link, DOI, citation with authors/year) for a publicly available or open dataset that could be used for reproduction.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not provide specific training/validation/test dataset split information (percentages, sample counts, or references to predefined splits) needed for reproduction.
Hardware Specification No No specific hardware specifications (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory details) used for running experiments were mentioned in the paper.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions using 'twitter API', 'BM25', and a 'two-step classification model (Barbosa and Feng 2010)', but it does not provide specific version numbers for any software libraries or dependencies.
Experiment Setup No The paper describes the system's modules and internal models but does not provide specific experimental setup details such as hyperparameter values, learning rates, batch sizes, or detailed training configurations.
