- Abstract summary: We propose a novel dynamic fingerprinting method that leverages contextual embedding of user's comments conditioned on relevant user's reading history.
The results show up to 13% improvement in micro F1-score compared to previous approaches.

- Abstract: Opinion prediction is an emerging research area with diverse real-world
applications, such as market research and situational awareness. We identify
two lines of approaches to the problem of opinion prediction. One uses
topic-based sentiment analysis with time-series modeling, while the other uses
static embedding of text. The latter approaches seek user-specific solutions by
generating user fingerprints. Such approaches are useful in predicting user's
reactions to unseen content. In this work, we propose a novel dynamic
fingerprinting method that leverages contextual embedding of user's comments
conditioned on relevant user's reading history. We integrate BERT variants with
a recurrent neural network to generate predictions. The results show up to 13\%
improvement in micro F1-score compared to previous approaches. Experimental
results show novel insights that were previously unknown such as better
predictions for an increase in dynamic history length, the impact of the nature
of the article on performance, thereby laying the foundation for further
research.

Prediction [56.001808843574395]
Selective prediction aims to learn a reliable model that abstains from making predictions when uncertain.
Active learning aims to lower the overall labeling effort, and hence human dependence, by querying the most informative examples.
In this work, we introduce a new learning paradigm, active selective prediction, which aims to query more informative samples from the shifted target domain.

Previous query-based detectors suffer from two drawbacks: first, multiple predictions will be inferred for a single object, typically in crowded scenes; second, the performance saturates as the depth of the decoding stage increases.
We propose a progressive predicting method to address the above issues. Specifically, we first select accepted queries to generate true positive predictions, then refine the rest noisy queries according to the previously accepted predictions.
Experiments show that our method can significantly boost the performance of query-based detectors in crowded scenes.
