Birds of the Same Feather Tweet Together. Bayesian Ideal Point Estimation Using Twitter Data
Politicians and citizens increasingly engage in political conversations on social media outlets such as Twitter. In this paper I show that the structure of the social networks in which they are embedded can be a source of information about their ideological positions. Under the assumption that social networks are homophilic, I develop a Bayesian Spatial Following model that considers ideology a...

متن کاملBirds of a feather flock together: Insights into starling murmuration behaviour revealed using citizen science
Pre-roost murmuration displays by European starlings Sturnus vulgaris are a spectacular example of collective animal behaviour. To date, empirical research has focussed largely on flock movement and biomechanics whereas research on possible causal mechanisms that affect flock size and murmuration duration has been limited and restricted to a small number of sites. Possible explanations for this...
متن کاملBirds of a Feather Linked Together: A Discriminative Topic Model using Link-based Priors
A wide range of applications, from social media to scientific literature analysis, involve graphs in which documents are connected by links. We introduce a topic model for link prediction based on the intuition that linked documents will tend to have similar topic distributions, integrating a max-margin learning criterion and lexical term weights in the loss function. We validate our approach o...
