Abstract

Generally discussed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for organizing and/or searching news events. In one or more embodiments, a method can include encoding a news event based on named entities, actors, and actions mentioned in the news event, calculating a locality sensitive hash (LSH) key on the news event encoding, comparing the calculated LSH key to a plurality of LSH keys of respective stories, wherein each story of the respective stories comprises one or more associated news events that include LSH keys that are within a specified distance from each other, and associating the news event with a story of the respective stories that includes an LSH key that has a smallest distance from the LSH key of the received news event and is less than the specified distance.
