Challenge: Existing studies have incorporated different digital traces to better learn the representations of social media users, limited by overloaded text information and hard-to-collect social network information.
Approach: They propose a Pre-training Architecture for Social Media User Modeling based on Text Graph and combine microblogs to represent social media users based upon the text graph model.
Outcome: The proposed framework can represent users based on text even without social network information on microblogs.

Learning Invariant Representations of Social Media Users (D19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods for learning to compare social media users fail to generalize to new users or even to previously known users.
Approach: They propose a procedure to learn a mapping from short episodes of user activity to a vector space in which the distance between points captures the similarity of the corresponding users’ invariant features.
Outcome: The proposed procedure can be applied to users not seen at training time and enables efficient comparisons of users in the resulting vector space.
