Fine-grained Prediction of Political Leaning on Social Media with Unsupervised Deep Learning
2022
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
Predicting the political leaning of social media users is an increasingly popular task, given its usefulness for electoral forecasts, opinion dynamics models and for studying the political dimension of polarization and disinformation. Here, we propose a novel unsupervised technique for learning fine-grained political leaning from the textual content of social media posts. Our technique leverages a deep neural network for learning latent political ideologies in a representation learning task.
