Abstract

© Springer International Publishing AG 2017.To determine author demographics of texts in social media such as Twitter, blogs, and reviews, we use doc2vec document embeddings to train a logistic regression classifier. We experimented with age and gender identification on the PAN author profiling 2014–2016 corpora under both single- and cross-genre conditions. We show that under certain settings the neural network-based features outperform the traditional features when using the same classifier. Our method outperforms existing state of the art under some settings, though the current state-of-the-art results on those tasks have been quite weak.
