<![CDATA[Currently, social media is used as a platform for interacting with many people and has also become a source of information for social media researchers or analysts. Twitter is one of the platforms commonly used for research purposes, especially for data from tweets written by individuals. However, on Twitter, user information such as gender is not explicitly displayed in the account profile, yet there is a plethora of unstructured information containing such data, often unnoticed. This research aims to classify gender based on tweet data and account description data and determine the accuracy of gender classification using machine learning methods. The method used involves FastText as a feature extraction method and LSTM as a classification method based on the extracted data, while to achieve the most accurate results, classification is performed on tweet data, account description data, and a combination of both. This research shows that LSTM classification on account description data and combined data obtained an accuracy of 70%, while tweet data classification achieved 69%. This research concludes that FastText feature extraction with LSTM classification can be implemented for gender classification. However, there is no significant difference in accuracy results for each dataset. However, this research demonstrates that both methods can work well together and yield optimal results.]]>
