The invention discloses a hotspot information finding method and system. The method includes the steps of obtaining a to-be-processed text, conducting word dividing and part-of-speech tagging on the to-be-processed text, conducting parsing on the text subjected to word dividing to obtain a dependence syntactic tree of each sentence in the to-be-processed text, removing stop words in the dependence syntactic tree of each sentence in the to-be-processed text to obtain to-be-analyzed dependence syntactic tree, establishing a small world network through the to-be-analyzed dependence syntactic tree, conducting hotspot analysis according to the to-be-analyzed dependence syntactic tree and the small world network, and obtaining hotspot information in the to-be-processed text according to the hotspot analysis result. By means of the method and system, the hotspot information in the to-be-processed text can be efficiently and accurately found.
