Abstract-Risk management has become an important concern over recent years and understanding how risk models could be developed based on the availability of real time (streaming) data has become a challenge. As the volume and velocity of event data (from news media, for instance) continues to grow, we investigate how such data can be used to inform the development of dynamic risk models. A Bayesian Belief Network based approach is adopted in this work, which is able to make use of priors derived from a variety of different news sources (based on data available in RSS feeds).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
