Automated event processing system

An information processing system comprising:

• a computer system;
• and
• a news information processor in the computer system, wherein the news information processor is configured to:
• receive news items from a network;
• identify relevant news items in the news items based on events in the news items that relate an ability a set of properties to generate income;
• determine a context for the events in the relevant news items;
• cluster the relevant news items according to the events in the relevant news items into a set of clusters based on the events such that the relevant news items about same events are grouped together in the set of clusters, wherein the same events are determined using the context for the events;
• match the events to transactions for the set of properties for the events in the set of clusters to form a set of matched transactions;
• and
• perform a number of actions for the set of matched transactions.

An information processing system comprising:

• a computer system;
• a news ingestion layer in the computer system, wherein the news ingestion layer is configured to receive news items from a network;
• a relevance layer in the computer system, wherein the relevance layer is configured to identify relevant news items in the news items based on events in the news items that relate an ability for a set of operators to operate a set of properties;
• a contextualization layer in the computer system, wherein the contextualization layer is configured to determine a context for the events in the relevant news items;
• a clustering layer in the computer system, wherein the clustering layer is configured to cluster the relevant news items according to the events in the relevant news items into a set of clusters based on the events such that the relevant news items about same events are grouped together in the set of clusters and wherein the same events are determined using the context for the events;
• a transaction matching layer in the computer system, wherein the transaction matching layer is configured to match the events in the set of clusters to transactions for the set of properties for the events to form a set of matched transactions;
• and
• an application layer in the computer system, wherein the application layer is configured to perform a number of actions for the set of matched transactions.

A method for processing news items, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a computer system, news items from a network;
• identifying, by the computer system, relevant news items in the news items based on events in the news items that relate an ability for a set of operators to operate a set of properties;
• determining, by the computer system, a context for the events in the relevant news items;
• clustering, by the computer system, the relevant news items according to the events in the relevant news items into a set of clusters based on the events such that the relevant news items about the same events are grouped together in the set of clusters, wherein the same events are determined using the context for the events;
• matching, by the computer system, the events in the set of clusters to transactions for the set of properties for the events to form a set of matched transactions;
• and
• performing, by the computer system, a number of actions for the set of matched transactions.

A computer program product for processing news items, the computer program product comprising:

• a computer-readable storage media;
• first program code, stored on the computer-readable storage media, executable by a computer system to cause the computer system to receive news items from a network;
• second program code, stored on the computer-readable storage media, executable by the computer system to cause the computer system to identify relevant news items in the news items based on events in the news items that relate an ability for a set of operators to operate a set of properties;
• third program code, stored on the computer-readable storage media, executable by the computer system to cause the computer system to determine a context for the events in the relevant news items;
• fourth program code, stored on the computer-readable storage media, executable by the computer system to cause the computer system to cluster the relevant news items according to the events in the relevant news items into a set of clusters based on the events such that relevant news items about the same events are grouped together in the set of clusters, wherein the same events are determined using the context for the events;
• fifth program code, stored on the computer-readable storage media, executable by the computer system to cause the computer system to match the events in the set of clusters to transactions for the set of properties for the events to form a set of matched transactions;
• and
• sixth program code, stored on the computer-readable storage media, executable by the computer system to cause the computer system to perform a number of actions for the set of matched transactions.
