Abstract: There is a growing interest in using social media content for Natural LanĀ¬guage Processing applications. This paper seeks to demonstrate a way to present the changing semantics of Twitter within the context of a crisis event, specifically tweets during Hurricane Irma. Using an implementation of the Word2Vec method of Neural Network training mechanisms developed by Mikolov, et al to create Word Embeddings, this paper will: discuss how the relative meaning of words changes as events unfold; present a mechanism for scoring tweets based upon dynamic, relative context relatedness; and show that similarity between words is not necessarily static.
