Abstract
A system and method for generating a reputation score is disclosed. A processing unit processes user activity data from data sources to identify user interactions associated with a user. A categorizing engine categorizes the user interactions into categories. A social bonus engine determines a social bonus score based on social affinity data. A scoring engine computes a first reputation score for the user by combining scores for the categorized user interactions with a social bonus score. A learning engine receives a second set of user interactions and training data and generates a learning result that is used to update the first reputation score.
