keywords = {Social Networks},
sigstat = {How do individuals become influential within a team and to what extent is influence affected by cognitive biases and heuristics? Predicting social influence has important applications in finance, politics, and any task-oriented teams. We propose machine learning models to predict interpersonal influence in teams using message content, communication times, and individual task performance. We also propose an intuitive cognitive model that tests and validates the hypotheses that expertise, confidence, and psychological cognitive biases drive the formation of social influence. Our findings on groups of human subjects show the proposed models significantly improve the prediction of influence networks compared to baseline algorithms.}
