Abstract [en]

In this paper we present an approach for the PAN 2019 Author Profiling challenge. The task here is to detect Twitter bots and also to classify the gender of human Twitter users as male or female, based on a hundred select tweets from their profile. Focusing on feature engineering, we explore the semantic categories present in tweets. We combine these semantic features with part of speech tags and other stylistic features – e.g. character floodings and the use of capital letters – for our eventual feature set. We have experimented with different machine learning techniques, including ensemble techniques, and found AdaBoost to be the most successful (attaining an F1-score of 0.99 on the development set). Using this technique, we achieved an accuracy score of 89.17% for English language tweets in the bot detection subtask
