We aim to predict the broad type of POI at social media post publication time Task is Multi-class classification performed at the social media post level ➢ Post T, T = {t1, ..., tn}, ➢ Label T as one of the M POI types

Applications

➢ POI Visualization ➢ POI Recommendation ➢ Social and cultural geography Distinct from geo-location prediction: ➢ Predict type of place (POI) ➢ Rather than / irrespective of the exact location / coordinates

Data

➢ 196,235 tweets in English ➢ 2,761 different POIs in the U.S.

○ Between 10-100 tweets/POI

➢ 8 POI types

Analysis

Arts & Entertainment category peaks around 8 PM Nightlife Spots present a higher percentage of tweets in the early hours of the day than other categories

Analysis

College & University Professional & Other Places The most common error is when the model classifies tweets from the category ‘College & University’ as ‘Professional & Other Places’
