    Event Detection using Wikipedia Eirik Emanuelsen Martin Rudi Holaker Master of Science in Computer Science Submission date: June 2013 Supervisor: Kjetil Nørvåg, IDI Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Computer and Information Science Task Description Analysing huge text based corpora has been a popular field for research, and recently Wikipedia has become a popular corpus to study. This project aims to make a scalable system with web interface for exploring the Wikipedia page view statistics combined with page edit statistics and try to detect popularity spikes. The system can be extended with other features, for example exploring relations and grouping of entities. I II Preface This is the final thesis of our Master’s degree from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of Computer and Information Science. It has been prepared over a period of 20 weeks during the spring of 2013. This thesis is within the field of Data and Information Management, and presents a system ca- pable of performing event detection on Wikipedia. We are very grateful to our two academic supervisors; Professor Kjetil Nørvåg (NTNU) and Associate Professor Krisztian Balog (University in Stavanger). During the development of the thesis you have provided guidance that has been invaluable for the final result. Thank you very much for your support, advisory and involvement in the process. Martin Rudi Holaker and Eirik Emanuelsen Trondheim, June 2013 III IV Abstract The amount of information on the web is ever growing, and analysing and making sense of this is difficult without specialised tools. The concept of Big Data is the field of processing and storing these enormous quantities of data.

They were emerging as title rivals to Ferguson’s Manchester United and he was keen for Morgan to move to Old Trafford. Morgan chose Blackburn, signing for the Ewood Park side in 1994. A year later, Blackburn won their one and only Premier League title. But despite training with the league-winning squad, and making the bench for league and European matches, Morgan found himself released – and without a club – almost three years later. It was only weeks before captaining the Ireland Under-20s to a third-place finish in the 1997 World Championships in Malaysia. Put simply, Morgan fell by the wayside as Blackburn – and their Premier League rivals – regularly shunned the promotion of youth in favour of big-money signings. The 19 WHERE HAVE ALL THE IRISH GONE? birth of the Premier League in 1992 ushered in an era of stellar signings, compounded by the Bosman ruling in 1995, which removed obstacles to foreign players playing in England – a double whammy which would change the fortunes of Irish players for ever.
