… In Section 2, we introduce notations and formally define user identity linkage. In Section 3,
we present the general framework of user identity linkage approaches. Specifically, we review …

… Abstract—The typical aim of User Identity Linkage (UIL) is to detect when users from
across … span from user-profile-based, through user-generated-content-based, user-behavior-based …

… We propose CoLink, a general unsupervised framework for the User Identity Linkage
problem. CoLink separates the user profile into two independent views: user attributes and …

… the multi-platform user identity linkage problem based on a new concept of Latent User
Space, which more naturally models the relationship among the underlying real user and the var…

… Once our model achieves good performance on this simple task, we start to train it with
the final user identity linkage task on different mobility data source. This warm-up task is to …

… identities, which could contribute to the subsequent linkages in following matching steps. To
address this problem, we transform user identity linkage … optimize the linkage strategy from …

… novel framework that links user identities across multiple OSNs through the use of a network
… For a fair comparison, we introduce more anchor links by linking user identities which share …

… • We propose a reliable iterative identity linkage mechanism in TransLink. It can maximally
improve the precision and recall rate by iteratively appending the newly connected anchor …

… nodes, we intend to find those nodes which are the same user identity across networks,
namely user identity linkage predictions. Here, we only rely on the network topology to learn …

… In this section, we define preliminary concepts used in this paper and the user identity linkage
problem. Without loss of generality, we focus on user identity linkage in two social networks…
