Social media user geolocalization based on multiple mention relationships by Yaqiong QIAO, Xiangyang LUO, Jiangtao MA, Chenliang LI, Meng ZHANG, Ruixiang LI

“…Aiming at the problem that the existing joint user geolocalization methods based on social media text and social relationships do not sufficiently mine the location correlation between heterogeneous data in social media, a social media user geolocalization method based on multiple mention relationships was proposed.First, a heterogeneous network was constructed by comprehensively considering the mention relationship between users, the user's mention relationship with location indicative words, and the user's mention relationship with geographic nouns.Then, a network simplification strategy was proposed to construct a user-location heterogeneous network that connects users live nearby more closely based on the common mention relationship.After that, a biased random walk algorithm was proposed for the graph node sampling to fully explore the network structure and alleviate the sparsity problem of known locations.Finally, a neural network classifier based on a multilayer perceptron was used to infer the user's location.Experimental results on three representative Twitter data sets of GEOTEXT, TW-US and TW-WORLD show that the proposed method can significantly improve the user geolocalization accuracy.…”

Multi-adversarial domain adaptation method based on feature correction by Yong ZHANG, Haoshuang LIU, Qi ZHANG, Wenzhe LIU

“…Domain adaptation can transfer labeled source domain information to an unlabeled but related target domain by aligning the distribution of source domain and target domain.However, most existing methods only align the low-level feature distributions of the source and target domains, failing to capture fine-grained information within the samples.To address this limitation, a feature correction-based multi-adversarial domain adaptation method was proposed.An attention mechanism to highlight transferable regions was introduced in this method and a feature correction module was deployed to align the high-level feature distributions between the two domains, further reducing domain discrepancies.Additionally, to prevent individual classifiers from overfitting their own noisy pseudo-labels,dual classifier co-training was proposed and the feature aggregation property of graph neural networks was utilized to generate more accurate source domain labels.Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets for transfer learning demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.…”
