Pooled LSTM for Dutch cross-genre gender classification ...

We present the results of cross-genre and in-genre gender classification performed on the data sets of Dutch tweets, YouTube comments and news prepared for the CLIN 2019 shared task. We propose a recurrent neural network architecture for gender classification, in which the input word and part-of-speech sequences are fed to the LSTM layer, which is followed by average and max pooling layers. The best cross-genre accuracy of 55.2% was achieved by the model trained on YouTube comments and tweets, and tested on the balanced news corpus, while the best in-genre accuracy of 61.33% was achieved on Yo...
