Social media contains useful information about people and the society that could help advance research in many different areas (e.g. by applying opinion mining, emotion/sentiment analysis, and statistical analysis) such as business and finance, health, socio-economic inequality and gender vulnerability. User demographics provide rich information that could help study the subject further. However, user demographics such as gender are considered private and are not freely available. In this study, we propose a model based on transformers to predict the user's gender from their images and tweets. We fine-tune a model based on Vision Transformers (ViT) to stratify female and male images. Next, we fine-tune another model based on Bidirectional Encoders Representations from Transformers (BERT) to recognize the user's gender by their tweets. This is highly beneficial, because not all users provide an image that indicates their gender. The gender of such users could be detected form their tweets. The combination model improves the accuracy of image and text classification models by 6.98% and 4.43%, respectively. This shows that the image and text classification models are capable of complementing each other by providing additional information to one another. We apply our method to the PAN-2018 dataset, and obtain an accuracy of 85.52%.
