We propose a multilingual personality classifier that uses text data from social media and Youtube Vlog transcriptions, and maps them into Big Five personality traits using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). We first train unsupervised bilingual word embeddings from an English-Chinese parallel corpus, and use these trained word representations as input to our CNN. This enables our model to yield relatively high cross-lingual and multilingual performance on Chinese texts, after training on the English dataset for example. We also train monolingual Chinese embeddings from a large Chinese text corpus and then train our CNN model on a Chinese dataset consisting of conversational dialogue labeled with personality. We achieve an average F-score of 66.1 in our multilingual task compared to 63.3 F-score in cross-lingual, and 63.2 F-score in the monolingual performance.
Finally, REF built a classifier for personality recognition using a convolutional neural network (CNN) with bilingual word embeddings, also on the myPersonality data, with approximately 66% average accuracy.
