Joint Effects of Context and User History for Predicting Online Conversation Re-entries (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for predicting online conversation re-entry focus on modeling engagement patterns in ongoing conversations or ignoring the rich information in users' previous chatting history. |
| Approach: | They propose a neural framework with three main layers to model the conversation context and user history and their interactions with Twitter and Reddit to predict whether a user will return to a conversation they once participated in. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on two large-scale Twitter and Reddit conversations, and achieves an F1 score of 61.1 on Twitter conversations. |
