Abstract: There is a growing interest in using social media content for Natural Language Processing applications. However, it is not easy to computationally identify the most relevant set of tweets related to any specific event. Challenging semantics coupled with different ways for using natural language in social media make it difficult for retrieving the most relevant set of data from any social media outlet. 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. These methods can be used to identify the most relevant corpus of text for analysis in relevance to a specific incident such as a hurricane. Using an implementation of the Word2Vec method of Neural Network training mechanisms 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. We present different methods for training the vector model in Word2Vec for identification of the most relevant tweets for any search query. The impact of tuning parameters such as Word Window Size, Minimum Word Frequency, Hidden Layer Dimensionality, and Negative Sampling on model performance was explored. The window containing the local maximum for AU_ROC for each parameter serves as a guide for other studies using the methods presented here for social media data analysis.
