「いいね」「シェア」をした投稿のテキスト情報を利用したSNSユーザの性格推定

抄録

It has been reported that a person’s remarks and behaviors reflect the person’s personality. Several recent studies have shown that textual information of user posts and user behaviors such as liking and reblogging the specific posts are useful for predicting the personality of Social Networking Service (SNS) users. However, less attention has been paid to the textual information derived from the user behaviors. In this paper, we investigate the effect of using textual information with user behaviors for personality prediction. We focus on the personality diagnosis website and make a large dataset on SNS users and their personalities by collecting users who posted the personality diagnosis on Twitter. Using this dataset, we work on personality prediction as a set of binary classification tasks. Our experiments on the personality prediction of Twitter users show that the textual information of user behaviors is more useful than the co-occurrence information of the user behaviors and the performance of prediction is strongly affected by the number of the user behaviors, which were incorporated into the prediction. We also show that user behavior information is crucial for predicting the personality of users who do not post frequently.
