Abstract

This paper presents techniques to detect offline activities of a person when she is tweeting in order to create a dynamic profile of the user, for uses such as better targeting of advertisements. To this end, we propose a hybrid LSTM model for rich contextual learning, along with studies on the effects of applying and combining multiple LSTM based methods with different contextual features. The hybrid model outperforms a set of baselines as well as state-of-the-art methods.
