Fun machine learning project

Hi all

The website Reddit has a problem where some people have multiple accounts, and use it to manipulate threads (astroturfing).

I would like you to create a Python program which can analyse two users to see if they are the same person.

It may work something like this:

1. Enter a username.

2. Use the Reddit API ([login to view URL]) to get that user's comments (text, subreddit, posting times, etc.).

3. Create a model using this data.

4. Enter another username and fetch their data using the Reddit API.

5. Use the earlier model to see if both users have a high probability of being the same person. I'm guessing some sort of text analysis + the subreddits they use + their posting times could be combined.

Maybe there is a better way to do it.

You must use Python 3.

Any questions, just ask.

Thanks.

This does sound interesting. An additional approach could be to search other sites for the usernames in question and apply the same techniques there.
