In an example, each of a plurality of members of social networking service is mapped to a weighted skill vector, each weighted skill vector including a list of skills for the member with an associated weight indicating strength of the skill. Members of the social networking service that belong to an industry are aggregated to obtain a weighted matrix of members and skills along with compensation vectors indicating compensation for each of the members in the matrix. The weighted matrix of users and skills and corresponding compensation vectors is used to train a machine learning skill monetary value prediction model to output a predicted monetary value for one or more skills contained in a candidate vector fed to the machine learning skill monetary value prediction model.
