Event Description & Summoning Filter

This classification model extracts the Civil Unrest Event related tweets 
that are "Ongoing event descriptions" or "Summoning for events". 

Note:
1. The filter is country-based, thus the civil unrest event tweets for foreign countries will be filtered.
2. Few external packages are required, including:
	* liblinear
		available at:  
			Windows: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
			CentOS Linux: sudo yum install python-liblinear
	* sklearn / scikit-learn

	* pyparsing

	* kmethods
