Abstract

Techniques for inferring the identity (e.g., member profile attributes) of members of an online social network service are described. According to various embodiments, a member profile attribute missing from a member profile page associated with a particular member of an online social network service is identified. Member profile data and behavioral log data associated with a plurality of members of the online social network service is then accessed. Thereafter, a prediction modeling process is performed, based on a prediction model and feature data including the member profile data and the behavioral log data, to generate a confidence score associated with the particular member and the missing member profile attribute, the confidence score indicating a likelihood that the missing member profile attribute corresponds to a candidate value.
