Abstract

We discuss Topic Detection, a sub-task of the Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT) Project, and present initial results for both a baseline system and a set of extensions that attempt to model events and reportage in the news domain. Moreover, we describe a system that clusters live news feed and presents this data to the user in a variety of formats. We conclude that this system produces interesting and useful clusters, and outline some areas of future work.
