Title
Tweet-SCAN: An event discovery technique for geo-located tweets.
Abstract
•We motivate event discovery from geo-located tweets in Twitter.•We propose to tackle this problem through density-based clustering with noise.•We formulate Tweet-SCAN within GDBSCAN to cope with Twitter objects.•We demonstrate how Tweet-SCAN is able to discover real-world events.•We show the benefits of considering the textual component of a geo-located tweet.
