Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for linking newsworthy events in a document to published content. One method includes an operation for receiving features by a classifier that is operable to determine a probability of the availability of news for a sentence. When the features are found in the sentence, the probability of the availability of news for the sentence increases, where the sentence includes one or more noun phrases and ends in a full stop. The classifier determines which sentences in a document are candidate sentences for being linked to news articles, and for each candidate sentence, the method includes an operation for finding an associated news article when there is an associated news article exceeding a relevance threshold. Further, the method includes operations for adding links in the document to the found associated news articles, and for displaying the document with the added links.
