Leveraging Large Language Models with Multiple Loss Learners for Few-Shot Author Profiling

This repository contains the code and data for the paper "Leveraging Large Language Models with Multiple Loss Learners for Few-Shot Author Profiling" by Hamed Babaei Giglou, Mostafa Rahgouy, Jennifer D’Souza, Milad Molazadeh Oskuee, Hadi Bayrami Asl Tekanlou, and Cheryl D Seals. The paper was presented at the 14th International Conference of the CLEF Association (CLEF 2023).

The objective of author profiling (AP) is to study the characteristics of authors through the analysis of how language is exchanged among people. Studying these attributes sometimes is challenging due to the lack of annotated data. This indicates the significance of studying AP from a low-resource perspective. This year at AP@PAN 2023 the major interest raised in profiling cryptocurrency influencers with a few-shot learning technique to analyze the effectiveness of advanced approaches in dealing with new tasks from a low-resource perspective.
