Event intensity assessment

A system, comprising:

• a processor configured to initiate operations including:
• detecting an event description of an event within textual input received via a data communication network, wherein the event description is detected using a text classification model pretrained to classify textual input according to event type;
• generating an event-correlated data structure based on the event, wherein the event-correlated data structure includes an event descriptor corresponding to the event;
• determining, using natural language processing, an event sentiment based on the event descriptor;
• determining an event impact based on a quantitative temporal-spatial measure corresponding to an event set including the event and other events of a same event type;
• determining an event intensity based on the event sentiment and event impact;
• and
• modifying a display generated via a graphical user interface (GUI) in response to the event intensity exceeding a predetermined threshold, wherein the display indicates the event and the event intensity.

A computer program product, the computer program product comprising:

• one or more computer-readable storage media and program instructions collectively stored on the one or more computer-readable storage media, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to initiate operations including:
• detecting an event description of an event within textual input received via a data communication network, wherein the event description is detected using a text classification model pretrained to classify textual input according to event type;
• generating an event-correlated data structure based on the event, wherein the event-correlated data structure includes an event descriptor corresponding to the event;
• determining, using natural language processing, an event sentiment based on the event descriptor;
• determining an event impact based on a quantitative temporal-spatial measure corresponding to an event set including the event and other events of a same event type;
• determining an event intensity based on the event sentiment and event impact;
• and
• modifying a display generated via a graphical user interface (GUI) in response to the event intensity exceeding a predetermined threshold, wherein the display indicates the event and the event intensity.
