Abstract

The use of social media and leaving a digital footprint has recently increased all around the world. It is being used as a platform for people to communicate their sentiments, emotions, and expectations with their data. The data available in social media are publicly viewable and accessible. Any social media network user's personality is predicted based on their posts and status in order to deliver a better accuracy. In this perspective, the proposed research article proposes novel machine learning methods for predicting the personality of humans based on their social media digital footprints. The proposed model may be reviewed for any job applicant during the times of COVID'19 through online enrolment for any organisation. Previously, the personality prediction methods are failed due to the differing perspectives of recruiters on job applicants. Also, this estimation is modernized and the prediction time is also reduced due to the implementation of the proposed hybrid approach on machine learning prediction. The artificial intelligence based calculation is used for predicting the personality of job applicants or any person. The proposed algorithm is organized with dynamic multi-context information and it also contains the account information of multiple platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. The collection of the various dataset from different social media sites constitute to the increase in the prediction rate of any machine learning algorithm. Therefore, the accuracy of personality prediction is higher than any other existing methods. Despite the fact that a person's logic varies from season to season, the proposed algorithm consistently outperforms other existing and traditional approaches in predicting a person's mentality.
