1. A quantitative data extraction service as implemented on a computing system, the quantitative data extraction service comprising a processor and a memory, wherein the processor executes instructions retrieved from the memory as part of or in conjunction with additional components to generate quantitative tuples from a corpus of user posts, the additional components comprising:

  • an executable quantitative tuple generator which, when executing on the processor performs the specialized process of generating quantitative tuples from the corpus of user posts, the quantitative tuple generator coupled to a communications component connected to a network for accessing the corpus of user posts;

    an executable event filter that, in execution, filters the corpus of user posts according to a desired event to create a corpus of filtered user posts consisting of a plurality of users posts from the corpus of user posts that relate to the desired event;

    an executable quantitative value filter that, in execution, filters each of the corpus of filtered user posts according to whether content of the respective each of the corpus of filtered user posts includes a quantitative value, thereby generating a quantitative event content corpus of a plurality of user posts consisting of user posts from the corpus of filtered user posts having a quantitative value in the respective content and relating to the desired event;

    an executable tuple extractor that, in execution, generates from the quantitative event content corpus a body of quantitative tuples corresponding to the desired event, wherein each quantitative tuple of the body of quantitative tuples includes at least a quantitative value extracted from the respective content and a topic, wherein the quantitative value corresponds to the topic; and

    wherein the quantitative tuple generator stores the body of quantitative tuples in a quantitative tuple data store.
