The impact and social psychological background are discussed. The more influential a participant is, the more he or she influences the outcome of a meeting. Experiments on 40 meetings show that application of statistical (both dynamic and static) models while using simply obtainable features results in a best prediction performance of 70.59\\% when using a static model, a balanced training set, and three discrete classes: high, normal and low. Application of the detected levels are shown in various ways i.e. in a virtual meeting environment as well as in a meeting browser system.}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/2006/rr-06-49.pdf}, postscript = {ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/reports/2006/rr-06-49.ps.gz}, ipdinar={2006}, ipdmembership={vision}, language={English}, }
