About this project

With my team, we used tweets collected with the Twitter API regarding the US elections of 2020. Using the LDA algorithm, we spotted the most talked topics in the months leading up to the election and for a short period after it. We also trained ML models with annotated data for gender prediction, age prediction, political affiliation prediction, and we calculated the emotion and subjectivity features. We applied these models to present charts with our findings in a Web application. Finally, we did tweet clustering based on the LDA representation of each tweet and we spotted 3 tweet clusters.
