Abstract : In the present era, data in any form is considered with greater importance. More specifically, text data has rich and brief information than any other form of data. Extraction and analysis of these data can result in various new findings through text analytics. This has led to applications such as search engines, extraction of product names, sentiment analysis, document classification and few more. Companies are much focused on sentimental analysis to review the positive, negative and neutral comments for their products. Summarization of text is a notable application of Natural Language Processing that reveals the gist of brief documents. Apart from these, on concerning welfare of the society, application based on information extraction can be developed. Handling an emergency situation requires collection of vast information. Extraction of such data can be supportive during disaster management. In order to perceive such task, system must learn the meaning of human languages. To ease the accessibility of text data across language barriers is the primary motive of Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems. The proposed systems has utilized word embedding model, specifically skip gram model to implement the most fundamental task of NLP–-entity extraction in social media text. Implementation of N-gram embedding methods paved way for creation of rich context knowledge for the system to handle social media text. Classification of named entities using the proposed system has been carried out using machine learning classifier Support Vector Machine (SVM).
