2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the step of estimating an inference quality of said one or more obtained attributes based on social network properties of said social neighbors.
1. A method for inferring one or more attributes of a user, comprising: obtaining an inferred set of attributes for said user comprised of one or more attributes of social neighbors of said user in a social network: predicting an accuracy of said obtained inferred set of attributes for said user; and if said predicted accuracy does not satisfy a quality threshold, then modifying said inferred set for said user using a user attribute correlation model describing a probability that at least two of said attributes in said inferred set co-occur on any one user among users of said social network.
