GeoScope: Online Detection of Geo-Correlated Information Trends in Social Networks
Summary: GeoScope detects topic–location correlations in sliding-window social-network streams, distinguishing genuinely local trends from globally frequent topics. It provides approximation guarantees with sublinear space/time, achieving near-perfect precision and perfect recall on Twitter. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
