A system and method for predicting user demographics based on a user's television, or media, viewing habits using machine learning algorithms is provided. A method of predicting a user's demographics comprises acquiring training data including one or more household data, person identification data, program title data, or watch time data. The method includes assessing a set of features. In addition, the method includes training one or more models based on the training data and set of features. The method includes acquiring viewing history data associated with at least one user. The method further includes determining one or more attributes associated with the at least one user based on inputting the viewing history data into the one or more models.
