contents Recognition of a user's influence level has attracted much attention as human interactions move online. Influential users have the ability to sway others' opinions to achieve some goals. As a result, predicting users' level of influence can help to understand social networks, forecast trends, prevent misinformation, etc. However, predicting user influence is a challenging problem because the concept of influence is specific to a situation or a domain, and user communications are limited to text. In this work, we define user influence level as a function of community endorsement and develop a model that significantly outperforms the baseline by leveraging demographic and personality data. This approach consistently improves RankDCG scores across eight different domains.
