Abstract

To support the efficient gathering of diverse information about a news event, we propose a diversity-seeking mobile news app on smart mobile devices. At first, by extending our previous work, based on the entity-oriented news analysis, we propose three measures for searching and ranking news articles from perspectives of difference in opinions, difference in details, and difference in factor coverages. Then, by utilizing these measures, we develop a news app on mobile devices to help users to acquire diverse reports for improving news understanding. One of the notable features of our system is a context-aware re-ranking method for enhancing the diversity of news reports presented to users by considering the access history. The experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of our methods.
