I've begun to see a few articles discussing the idea of recommended or expert learning team formation systems. Intuitively, the idea makes sense.

In this paper they identify three sets of factors that inform the team-formation process: knowledge, personality and preferences. Based on these factors, the similarity (and hence compatibility) of prospective team members can be mapped to a vector space (illustrated above), which forms the basis for team member selection.
