Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Author Reputation Measurement on Question and Answer Sites by the Classification of Author-Generated Content(World Scientific Publishing, 2021) Sezerer, Erhan; Tenekeci, Samet; Acar, Ali; Baloğlu, Bora; Tekir, SelmaIn the field of software engineering, practitioners' share in the constructed knowledge cannot be underestimated and is mostly in the form of grey literature (GL). GL is a valuable resource though it is subjective and lacks an objective quality assurance methodology. In this paper, a quality assessment scheme is proposed for question and answer (Q&A) sites. In particular, we target stack overflow (SO) and stack exchange (SE) sites. We model the problem of author reputation measurement as a classification task on the author-provided answers. The authors' mean, median, and total answer scores are used as inputs for class labeling. State-of-the-art language models (BERT and DistilBERT) with a softmax layer on top are utilized as classifiers and compared to SVM and random baselines. Our best model achieves 63.8% accuracy in binary classification in SO design patterns tag and 71.6% accuracy in SE software engineering category. Superior performance in SE software engineering can be explained by its larger dataset size. In addition to quantitative evaluation, we provide qualitative evidence, which supports that the system's predicted reputation labels match the quality of provided answers.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Türkçe Tweetler Üzerinden Yapay Sinir Ağları ile Cinsiyet Tahminlemesi(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Sezerer, Erhan; Polatbilek, Ozan; Tekir, SelmaYazar ayrımlaması, yazarı bilinmeyen bir metin üzerinden yazarına dair cinsiyet, yaş ve dil gibi bazı anahtar özniteliklerin belirlenmesidir. Özellikle güvenlik ve pazarlama alanında önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, kullanıcıların tweetleri kullanılarak cinsiyetleri tahminlenmektedir. Yinelemeli Sinir Ağı (YSA) ve ilgi mekanizmasının birleşiminden oluşan bir model önerilmiştir. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla bu çalışma Twitter veri kümesi ile Türkçe’de ilk defa yapılmıştır. Önerilen model Türkçe, İngilizce, İspanyolca ve Arapça dillerinde sınanmış ve sırasıyla 80.63, 81.73, 78.22, 78.5 doğruluk değerlerine ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen doğruluk değerleri Türkçe’de en gelişkin, diğer dillerde ise rekabetçi bir başarım ortaya koymaktadır.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 6Gender Prediction From Tweets With Convolutional Neural Networks: Notebook for Pan at Clef 2018(CEUR Workshop Proceedings, 2018) Sezerer, Erhan; Polatbilek, Ozan; Sevgili, Özge; Tekir, SelmaThis paper presents a system1 developed for the author profiling task of PAN at CLEF 2018. The system utilizes style-based features to predict the gender information from the given tweets of each user. These features are automatically extracted by Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The system mainly depends on the idea that the informativeness of each tweet is not the same in terms of the gender of a user. Thus, the attention mechanism is included to the CNN outputs in order to discriminate the tweets carrying more information. Our architecture was able to obtain competitive results on three languages provided by the PAN 2018 author profiling challenge with an average accuracy of 75.1% on local runs and 70.23% on the submission run.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1A Relativistic Opinion Mining Approach To Detect Factual or Opinionated News Sources(Springer Verlag, 2017) Sezerer, Erhan; Tekir, SelmaThe credibility of news cannot be isolated from that of its source. Further, it is mainly associated with a news source’s trustworthiness and expertise. In an effort to measure the trustworthiness of a news source, the factor of “is factual or opinionated” must be considered among others. In this work, we propose an unsupervised probabilistic lexicon-based opinion mining approach to describe a news source as “being factual or opinionated”. We get words’ positive, negative, and objective scores from a sentiment lexicon and normalize these scores through the use of their cumulative distribution. The idea behind the use of such a statistical approach is inspired from the relativism that each word is evaluated with its difference from the average word. In order to test the effectiveness of the approach, three different news sources are chosen. They are editorials, New York Times articles, and Reuters articles, which differ in their characteristic of being opinionated. Thus, the experimental validation is done by the analysis of variance on these different groups of news. The results prove that our technique can distinguish the news articles from these groups with respect to “being factual or opinionated” in a statistically significant way.
