Incremental News Mining Using Evolving Clustering with Functional Operators

Abstract

Online media publish journalistic products, one of which is news online (online news). This is in line with the findings of the Ministry of Communication and Informatics (Kemkominfo), that in 2018 there were 43,000 online media in Indonesia. On generally in getting actual news, humans tend to read the news on online media one by one. The activity is not effective because of the news that produced by online media have the same information with each other news. In this study, we propose an innovative solution to this issue by developing a news mining system that employs clustering based on an evolving system. This system has the potential to improve the effectiveness of news retrieval by grouping similar news together and identifying key information trends, ultimately enhancing the ability of individuals to obtain actual news. Based on research observations, the performance of news clustering using an evolving clustering system with functional operators is quite good, as evidenced by an accuracy of 83%.
