Predicting Personality on Social Media with Semi-supervised Learning

Abstract: Personality research on social media is a hot topic recently due to the rapid development of social media as well as the central importance of personality study in psychology, but most studies are conducted on inadequate label samples. Our research aims to explore the usage of unlabeled samples to improve the prediction accuracy. By conducting n user study with 1792 users, we adopt local linear semi-supervised regression algorithm to predict the personality traits of Microblog users. Given a set of Microblog u… Show more

“…Other works, e.g. Nie et al (2014), give no indication concerning the amount of text being used per individual. These questions are especially relevant given that social media communications are likely highly variable, exhibiting fluctuations arising from a variety of factors, such as mood (Bradley and Mogg, 1994).…”

“…It also contributes to a much broader spectrum and intensity to society. The article suggests that cybercrimes are preventable by analyzing people's behavioral changes and sentiment analysis by predicting their thoughts through their social media posts using iterative clustering [16]; [17]. This approach can be crucial in providing solutions to socio-emotional problems or carrying out criminal activities.…”

“…The proposed method is language independent, does not require particular lexicons, and has been successfully applied to different languages [34]. To develop this method, the 1000 most frequent words labeled with Big Five personality traits and Myers-Briggs personality types were Several studies [75,107] have described improperly labeled samples in published research and have developed semi-supervised learning methods to evaluate the personality traits by using unlabeled samples. Nie et al [75] have extracted 47 features for each user in the categories of the user personal profile, social circles, social activities, and social habits.…”
