We apply a graph-based semi-supervised learning algorithm to identify the conscientiousness of Weibo users. Given a set of Weibo users’ public information(e.g., number of followers) and a few labeled Weibo users, the task is to predict conscientiousness assessment for numeric unlabeled Weibo users. Singular value decomposition(SVD) technique is taken for feature reduction, and K nearest neighbo...

The patient was described as either very conscientious, or very unconscientious. We asked partic...
