Abstrakt: Some embodiments provide a method for generating a graphical user interface (GUI) for a research system. The method receives a request from a user of the research system for information about a particular category. The method generates a chart that displays a set of events associated with the particular category over a particular period of time. The method incorporates the chart into a GUI for the particular category for transmission to the user. Some embodiments generate a list of events associated with the particular category and generate a GUI that displays the list of the events. Each event is represented in the list by a title of a document identified by the research system as representative of the event.

Claim: 1. System for at least world-wide web document searching, identification, classification, event scoring, generating a graphical user interface (GUI) for a research system, and implementing a detection system for identifying an increase in a number of documents pertaining to a particular category of multiple categories over a particular period of time, the system comprising: one or more processors; and a memory, coupled to the one or more processors, having code stored therein that when executed by the one or more processors causes the one or processors to perform operations comprising: executing world wide web searches with a webcrawler on a regular, automated basis to (i) detect new documents and automatically retrieve the documents, (ii) to enable detection of when events have occurred for categories in the detection system, and (iii) to enable classification of content in the documents as relevant to the categories wherein the documents include content elements and structural elements; automatically analyzing the documents using category models that score the documents for relevancy to a particular category to classify the documents, wherein each model represents a specific entity and includes data that is used to identify documents related to the entity that the model represents, each model includes word association patterns of document elements associated with the score of the documents and includes parameters used in the analysis of documents by the model, wherein automatically analyzing the document using the category models comprises: applying the models of each of the documents by identifying the word association patterns of document elements in the document; for each document, calculating a relevance score for each document's relation to each of the categories represented by the models by applying the word association patterns identified in the document and associated scores of the documents; and for each document, classifying the document by assigning the relevance score to each document for one or more of the categories over a particular period of time; based on the classification of the documents, for each particular category, identifying a first volume of documents relevant to the particular category over the particular period of time; removing duplicate documents from the first volume of documents; determining if the first volume of documents exceeds an average number of documents relevant to the category for a background time period; assigning an event score to the first volume of documents when the first volume of documents exceeds the average number of documents relevant to the category for a background time period; normalizing the event scores across a plurality of the categories; comparing the normalized event scores across the plurality of the categories; determining that an event has occurred when the normalized event score exceeds a particular threshold; receiving a request from a user of the research system for information about at least one of the particular categories; generating a chart that displays a set of events associated with the particular category over a particular period of time and displays a normalized comparison of events across the plurality of the categories, wherein the set of events comprises events appearing on the world wide web relevant to the particular category that have an assigned normalized event score that exceeds the particular threshold, and wherein the chart comprises a selectable item for a particular event; and; incorporating the chart into a GUI for the particular category for transmission to a computer system, wherein the GUI displays the selectable item and upon selection of the selectable item by a user of the computer system causes the GUI to display a set of documents appearing on the world wide web at a range of time corresponding to the particular event.
Claim: 2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the set of events comprises occurrences of an abnormally high volume of documents appearing on the world wide web relevant to the particular category.
Claim: 3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the particular category is a company.
Claim: 4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the set of events comprises notable stock price changes for the company.
Claim: 5. The system of claim 3 , wherein the set of events comprises management changes in the company.
Claim: 6. The system of claim 3 , wherein the set of events comprises SEC filings by the company.
Claim: 7. The system of claim 3 , wherein the chart further displays a stock price of the company over the particular period of time.
Claim: 8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the chart further displays a histogram of a number of documents appearing on the world wide web relevant to the particular category over the particular period of time.
Claim: 9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the chart further comprises one or more electable items for defining a portion of the particular period of time.
Claim: 10. The system of claim 9 , further comprising when executed by the one or more processors causes the one or processors to perform operations comprising generating a list of documents relevant to the particular category that appeared on the world wide web during the portion of the particular period of time.
Claim: 11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the GUI includes a display area for displaying the list of documents.
Claim: 12. The system of claim of claim 1 , wherein when a user moves a cursor over an item representing the event, the GUI displays a name of the event.
Claim: 13. The system of claim of claim 12 , wherein the item is a selectable item, wherein a user selection of the item directs a web browser to a document representative of the event.
