Abstract: Communication accounts may contain information such as account holder names, contact lists, and communication logs. Such information may be processed for generating features that may be used as corpus for a machine learning algorithm for developing classifiers of names. Specifically, names and contact names of the accounts may be arranged in to a document according to the manner in which account holders communicate with the contacts. The document may be used for generating word embedding of the names. Names prelabeled with ethnicity together with their word embedding may be used as training data for developing ethnicity classifiers based on machine learning algorithms.
