Abstract

Methods and systems for classifying social media users. The system computes a plurality of subgraphs from a user's social graph network and considers which types of subgraphs are overly represented in the user's social network to determine whether a user belongs to a certain class. The system may also consider features based on metadata of the user's network and social interactions occurring in the user's network.
