The research described in this paper focused on exploring the domain of user profiling, a nascent and contentious technology which has been steadily attracting increased interest from the research community as its potential for providing personalised digital services is realised. An extensive review of related literature revealed that limited research has been conducted into how temporal aspects of users can be captured using user profiling techniques. This, coupled with the notable lack of research into the use of word embedding techniques to capture temporal variances in language, revealed an opportunity to extend the Random Indexing word embedding technique such that the interests of users could be modelled based on their use of language. To achieve this, this work concerned itself with extending an existing implementation of Temporal Random Indexing to model Twitter users across multiple granularities of time based on their use of language. The product of this is a novel technique for temporal user profiling, where a set of vectors is used to describe the evolution of a Twitter user’s interests over time through their use of language. The vectors produced were evaluated against a temporal implementation of another state-of-the-art word embedding technique, the Word2Vec Dynamic Independent Skip-gram model, where it was found that Temporal Random Indexing outperformed Word2Vec in the generation of temporal user profiles.
