Abstract

Social media sites like Flickr, Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook are more and more flourishing with user-thrown pieces like videos, photographs, and multimedia content. Information about the real-world events are made available in social media. Problem arises when people search for multimedia content and extract information from the huge data. Usually, users are interested in gathering information about social events which may be a game, a conference, dance show, music concert, etc. Automatic event detection is one of the interesting subproblems. Our proposed methodology uses the context allied with social media content, the user-provided tags, and significant terms for each event from the Internet as features for event detection. Our proposed method groups the images to events simultaneously.
