Abstract

With the proliferation of the Chinese social network (especially the rise of weibo), the productivity and lifestyle of the country's society is more and more profoundly influenced by the Chinese internet public events. Due to the lack of the effective technical means, the efficiency of information processing is limited. This paper proposes a public event information entropy calculation method. First, a mathematical modeling of event information content is built. Then, multidimensional random variable information entropy of the public events is calculated based on Shannon information theory. Furthermore, a new technical index of quantitative analysis to the internet public events is put forward, laying out a foundation for further research work.
