説明

<jats:p>Machine learning models learn low-dimensional representations from complex high-dimensional data. Not only computer science but also social science has benefited from the advancement of these powerful tools. Within such tools, word embedding is one of the most popular methods in the literature. However, we have no particular documentation of this emerging trend because this trend overlaps different social science fields. To well compile this fragmented knowledge, we survey recent studies that apply word embedding models to human behavior mining. Our taxonomy built on the surveyed article provides a concise but comprehensive overview of this emerging trend of intersection between computer science and social science and guides scholars who are going to navigate the use of word embedding algorithms in their voyage of social science research.</jats:p>
