Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for identifying an influencer from a pool of people based on past interactions with one or more items. A similarity score is calculated for each of a plurality of items. An affinity score is determined for each person in the pool of people for each of the plurality of items. A similar item affinity score is calculated for each person based on the similarity score for each item and the affinity score for that item. The influencer is identified based on the similar item affinity scores for each person in the pool of people. The influencer is granted a permission to perform a particular action related to the particular item based on being identified as the influencer.
