Deep Learning Framework to Detect the False Analysis of a Product given by Robots and Malicious Users

Product evaluations are precious for upcoming clients in supporting them make choices. To this, numerous mining techniques have been proposed, wherein judging a evaluation sentence’s orientation (e.g. Outstanding or bad) is considered as one of their key worrying conditions. Lately, deep studying has emerged as a powerful technique for fixing sentiment kind issues. A neural network intrinsically learns useful instance routinely without human efforts. But, the fulfilment of deep getting to know pretty is primarily based totally on the supply of big-scale education data. We recommend a unique deep studying framework for product review sentiment classification which employs prevalently to be had rankings as susceptible supervision signs and symptoms. The framework consists of steps: (1) studying a high level representation (an embedding region) which captures the general sentiment distribution of sentences thru score facts; (2) such as a class layer-on top of the embedding layer and use labelled sentences for supervised fine-tuning. We discover styles of low stage community structure for modelling evaluation sentences, specifically, convolution function extractors and prolonged brieftime period memory. To have a take a look at the proposed framework, we gather a data set containing 1.1M weakly classified evaluate sentences and eleven, 754 labelled review sentences from Amazon. Experimental effects display the efficacy of the proposed framework and its superiority over baselines. In this future work todetect false reviews given by robots or by malicious people by taking amount, sometimessome companies may hire people to boost their product ranking higher by assigning fake rating and this malicious people or robots give continuous ranking or review to such product and we can detect such fake rating by analysingratingandremove suchfake rating to give only genuine reviews to users.

Sentiment analysis for online reviews using conditional random fields and support vector machines

Sentiment analysis of online reviews is an important way of mining useful information from the Internet. Despite several advantages, the accuracy of sentiment analysis based on a domain dictionary relies on the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the dictionary. Instead of creating a domain dictionary, we propose an approach for online review sentiment classification, which uses a conditional random field algorithm to extract the emotional characteristics from fragments of the review. The characteristic (feature) words are then weighted asymmetrically before a support vector machine classifier is used to obtain the sentiment orientation of the review. In our experiments, the average accuracy reached 90%, showing that using sentiment feature fragments instead of whole reviews and weighting the characteristic words asymmetrically can improve the sentiment classification accuracy.

Sentiment Classification of Reviews Based on BiGRU Neural Network and Fine-grained Attention

Text sentiment analysis is part and parcel of natural language processing. The task of sentiment classification is actually the process of feature extraction through models. The comment text of commodities is very different from the ordinary text. The comment text has no fixed grammar and writing format and the sentiment feature information is scattered in various places of text. Due to these factors, model learning of sentiment classification is becoming increasingly complex. The paper aims at establishing a fine-grained feature extraction model based on BiGRU and attention. Firstly, the vocabulary is vectorized by means of the skip-gram model. Then, according to the pre-trained word vector, the sentiment words list can be reached and noise filtering would be conducted by Naive Bayes algorithm. Finally, the model extracts features using BiGRU and fine-grained attentions. Based on the hypothesis that a long review may lead to feature differentiation, a fine-grained attention model is proposed. In this model, the attention layer is design to focus on the feature in different level such as word level, sentence level and paragraph level. This paper validate the proposed model on two sentiment corpus JD reviews and IMDB. Empirical results show that the FGAtten-BiGRU model achieves state of the art results on sentiment analysis tasks.

Deep Embedding Sentiment Analysis on Product Reviews Using Naive Bayesian Classifier

Product reviews are valuable for upcoming buyers in helping them make decisions. To this end, different opinion mining techniques have been proposed, where judging a review sentence�s orientation (e.g. positive or negative) is one of their key challenges. Recently, deep learning has emerged as an effective means for solving sentiment classification problems. Deep learning is a class of machine learning algorithms that learn in supervised and unsupervised manners. A neural network intrinsically learns a useful representation automatically without human efforts. However, the success of deep learning highly relies on the large-scale training data. We propose a novel deep learning framework for product review sentiment classification which employs prevalently available ratings supervision signals. The framework consists of two steps: (1) learning a high-level representation (an embedding space) which captures the general sentiment distribution of sentences through rating information; (2) adding a category layer on top of the embedding layer and use labelled sentences for supervised fine-tuning. We explore two kinds of low-level network structure for modelling review sentences, namely, convolutional function extractors and long temporary memory. Convolutional layer is the core building block of a CNN and it consists of kernels. Applications are image and video recognition, natural language processing, image classification

An empirical comparison of supervised learning algorithms and hybrid WDBN algorithm for MOOC courses

In today’s scenario, sentiment classification has been acknowledged as a significant aspect, as it delivers the techniques for automatically analyzing people’s reviews to extract useful information on a product or service. Polarity classification is one among those techniques which determine the text polarity in the opinion. In this regard, the given paper explains a method for sentiment classification of online course reviews using a novel classifier, whale-based deep belief network (WDBN). The input course review data is pre-processed in the given technique, and the key features are extracted from the data using emotion-SentiWordNet based feature extraction process. To classify sentiments in the feature extracted data, WDBN is brought in by combining deep belief networks and whale optimization algorithm such that the weights of the network layers are selected optimally. The given technique, with the application of WDBN, classifies the course reviews into two classes, such as positive and negative class reviews. The given WDBN classifier is tested with the help of a publicly accessible online course review dataset, and the performance of the classifier is assessed using three metrics, such as sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, where it could attain maximum performance of 86.3% sensitivity, 81.1% specificity and 86% accuracy.

High dimensional sentiment classification of product reviews using evolutionary computation

Feature selection is an important process in text classification. In general, traditional feature selection approaches are based on exhaustive search hence become inefficient due to a large search space. Further, this task becomes more challenging as the number of features increases. Recently, evolutionary computation (EC)-based search techniques have received a lot of attention in solving feature selection problem in high-dimensional feature space. This paper proposes a particle swarm optimisation (PSO)-based feature selection approach which is capable of generating the desired number of high-quality features from a large feature space. The proposed algorithm is tested on a large dataset and compared with several existing state-of-the-art algorithms used for feature selection. The accuracy of the underlying classifier has been considered as a measure of performance. Our obtained results demonstrated that the proposed PSO-based feature selection approach outperforms the other traditional feature selection algorithms in all the considered classifiers.

Kernel Optimized-Support Vector Machine and Mapreduce framework for sentiment classification of train reviews

Sentiment analysis is one of the popular techniques gaining attention in recent times. Nowadays, people gain information on reviews of users regarding public transportation, movies, hotel reservation, etc., by utilizing the resources available, as they meet their needs. Hence, sentiment classification is an essential process employed to determine the positive and negative responses. This paper presents an approach for sentiment classification of train reviews using MapReduce model with the proposed Kernel Optimized-Support Vector Machine (KO-SVM) classifier. The MapReduce framework handles big data using a mapper, which performs feature extraction and reducer that classifies the review based on KO-SVM classification. The feature extraction process utilizes features that are classification-specific and SentiWordNet-based. KO-SVM adopts SVM for the classification, where the exponential kernel is replaced by an optimized kernel, finding the weights using a novel optimizer, self-adaptive lion algorithm. In a comparative analysis, the performance of KO-SVM classifier is compared with SentiWordNet, Naive Bayes, neural network, and LSVM, using the evaluation metrics, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy, with train review and movie review database. The proposed KO-SVM classifier could attain maximum sensitivity of 93.46% and 91.249%, specificity of 74.485% and 70.018%; and accuracy of 84.341% and 79.611%, respectively, for train review and movie review databases.

OKO-SVM: Online kernel optimization-based support vector machine for the incremental learning and classification of the sentiments in the train reviews

Online incremental learning is one of the emerging research interests among the researchers in the recent years. The sentiment classification through the online incremental learning faces many challenges due to the limitations in the memory and the computing resources available for processing the online reviews. This work has introduced an online incremental learning algorithm for classifying the train reviews. The sentiments available in the reviews provided for the public services are necessary for improving the quality of the service. This work proposes the online kernel optimization-based support vector machine (OKO-SVM) classifier for the sentiment classification of the train reviews. This paper is the extension of the previous work kernel optimization-based support vector machine (KO-SVM). The OKO-SVM classifier uses the proposed fuzzy bound for modifying the weight for each incoming review database for the particular time duration. The simulation uses the standard train review and the movie review database for the classification. From the simulation results, it is evident that the proposed model has achieved a better performance with the values of 84.42%, 93.86%, and 74.56% regarding the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity while classifying the train review database.

Lexical based automated teaching evaluation via students’ short reviews

AbstractStudent evaluations of teaching (SET) have become a popular approach to assess faculties’ teaching. Question‐score‐based questionnaire is the most common SET measure adopted in universities. However, it fails to cover important facets of teaching process that not mentioned in the predefined questionnaire, which can be substantially obtained from students’ short reviews. In this paper, we propose two lexical‐based methods, specifically knowledge‐based and machine learning‐based, to automatically extract opinions from short reviews. Furthermore, the diversity of reviews’ themes and styles of same sentiment polarity reviews can be observed from the extracted opinion results. The experimental results show that the proposed methods are able to achieve accuracies of 78.13 and 84.78%, respectively in the task of student review sentiment classification. Further investigation on linguistic features shows that reviews with same sentiment polarity shares similar language patterns. Finally, we present an application scenario in real SET process by utilizing aforementioned methods and discoveries.

Tourism Review Sentiment Classification Using a Bidirectional Recurrent Neural Network with an Attention Mechanism and Topic-Enriched Word Vectors

Sentiment analysis of online tourist reviews is playing an increasingly important role in tourism. Accurately capturing the attitudes of tourists regarding different aspects of the scenic sites or the overall polarity of their online reviews is key to tourism analysis and application. However, the performances of current document sentiment analysis methods are not satisfactory as they either neglect the topics of the document or do not consider that not all words contribute equally to the meaning of the text. In this work, we propose a bidirectional gated recurrent unit neural network model (BiGRULA) for sentiment analysis by combining a topic model (lda2vec) and an attention mechanism. Lda2vec is used to discover all the main topics of review corpus, which are then used to enrich the word vector representation of words with context. The attention mechanism is used to learn to attribute different weights of the words to the overall meaning of the text. Experiments over 20 NewsGroup and IMDB datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our model. Furthermore, we applied our model to hotel review data analysis, which allows us to get more coherent topics from these reviews and achieve good performance in sentiment classification.

Hybrid attribute based sentiment classification of online reviews for consumer intelligence

Rich online consumer reviews (OCR) can be mined to gain valuable insights, beneficial for both brands and future buyers. Recently, aspect based sentiment classification have shown excellent results for fine grained sentiment analysis of OCR. However, there are only few studies so far that rely on both explicitly deriving sentiment using syntactic features, and capturing implicit contextual word relations for the task of aspect based sentiment classification. In this paper, we propose a novel method: Hybrid Attribute Based Sentiment Classification (HABSC) with the aim to derive sentiment orientation of OCR by capturing implicit word relations and incorporating domain specific knowledge. First, we detect the most frequent bigrams and trigrams in the corpus, followed by POS tagging to retain aspect descriptions and opinion words. Then, we employ TFIDF (term frequency inverse document frequency) to represent each document, followed by automatically extracting optimal number of topics in the given corpus. All the adjectives and adverbs are labelled using domain specific knowledge and pre-existing lexicons. Lastly, we find sentiment orientation of each review under the assumption that each review is a mixture of weighted and sentiment labelled attributes. We test the efficiency of our method using datasets from two different domains: hotel reviews from TripAdvisor.com and mobile phone reviews from Amazon.com. Results show that, the classification accuracy of HABSC significantly exceeds various state-of-the-art methods including aspect-based sentiment classification and supervised classification using distributed word and paragraph vectors. Our method also exhibits less computational time as compared to distributed vectorization schemes.

Predictive aspect-based sentiment classification of online tourist reviews

With the increase of online tourists reviews, discovering sentimental idea regarding a tourist place through the posted reviews is becoming a challenging task. The presence of various aspects discussed in user reviews makes it even harder to accurately extract and classify the sentiments. Aspect-based sentiment analysis aims to extract and classify user’s positive or negative orientation towards each aspect. Although several aspect-based sentiment classification methods have been proposed in the past, limited work has been targeted towards the automatic extraction of implicit, infrequent and co-referential aspects. Moreover, existing methods lack the ability to accurately classify the overall polarity of multi-aspect sentiments. This study aims to develop a predictive framework for aspect-based extraction and classification. The proposed framework utilises the semantic relations among review phrases to extract implicit and infrequent aspects for accurate sentiment predictions. Experiments have been performed using real-world data sets crawled from predominant tourist websites such as TripAdvisor and OpenTable. Experimental results and comparison with previously reported findings prove that the predictive framework not only extracts the aspects effectively but also improves the prediction accuracy of aspects.

Improving Review Representations With User Attention and Product Attention for Sentiment Classification

Neural network methods have achieved great success in reviews sentiment classification. Recently, some works achieved improvement by incorporating user and product information to generate a review representation. However, in reviews, we observe that some words or sentences show strong user's preference, and some others tend to indicate product's characteristic. The two kinds of information play different roles in determining the sentiment label of a review. Therefore, it is not reasonable to encode user and product information together into one representation. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to encode user and product information. Firstly, we apply two individual hierarchical neural networks to generate two representations, with user attention or with product attention. Then, we design a combined strategy to make full use of the two representations for training and final prediction. The experimental results show that our model obviously outperforms other state-of-the-art methods on IMDB and Yelp datasets. Through the visualization of attention over words related to user or product, we validate our observation mentioned above.

Based on number of datasets, the 90-10 composition has the best result that is 85.6%. Based on SVM kernel, kernel linear with constant 1 has the best result that is 84.9%

Sentiment analysis of Chinese online reviews using ensemble learning framework

Unstructured online reviews are undergoing a rather rapid expansion with the development of E-commerce, and they contain sentiment information in which consumers and businesses are very interested. Therefore, effective sentiment classification has become one of the important research topics. Many studies have shown that ensemble learning methods may have great hopeful applicability in sentiment classification tasks. In this paper, we propose a new ensemble learning framework for sentiment classification of Chinese online reviews. First of all, according to the complicated characteristics of Chinese online reviews, we extract Part of Speech Combination Pattern, Frequent Word Sequence Pattern and Order Preserved Submatrix Pattern as the input features. Furthermore, we use the algorithm of Random Subspace based on Information Gain by considering the problem of massive features in the reviews, which can improve the base classifiers simultaneously. Finally, we adopt the algorithm of Constructing Base Classifiers based on Product Attributes to combine the sentiment information of each attribute in a review so as to obtain better performance on sentiment classification. The experimental results show that the proposed ensemble learning framework has significant improvement in sentiment classification of Chinese online reviews.

Term Weighting Scheme Effect in Sentiment Analysis of Online Movie Reviews

Sentiment analysis is an evolving field of a study that deals directly with the online expressions posted by the user via the Internet with the main objective to automate the process of mining opinions into valuable information. For online reviews, this analysis deals with the identification of positive and negative reviews to help the consumer and the distributor in the decision-making process. In text analysis tasks, such as text classification and sentiment analysis, the appropriate choice of term weighting schemes will have a huge impact on the effectiveness of the analysis. This paper explores the effect of using term weighting scheme in the sentiment classification of online movie reviews. Specifically, the researchers applied Support Vector Machine (SVM) with linear and non-linear kernels to perform the classification process. The main finding of this study was that LinearSVC when used with TF-IDF improved the classification performance by as much as 87%. Thus, LinearSVC, together with TF-IDF, can serve as an effective technique in the extraction process of online documents.

Sentiment classification and computing for online reviews by a hybrid SVM and LSA based approach

For the current online reviews sentiment classification method, there are some problems such as serious text sparseness and coarse granularity of sentiment calculation. In this paper, the emotion in online reviews is divided into four categories: happiness, hope, disgust, and anxiety. Based on the combination of cognitive evaluation theory and sentiment analysis, a novel approach that combines a well-known techniques to sentiment classification, ie, support vector machine and the latent semantic analysis, was proposed. Based on the approach, this paper explored the influence of these four kinds of emotions on the helpfulness of online reviews, examined the moderating effects of emotion on the helpfulness of online reviews under the two types of products. The experimental results showed that this model could effectively conduct multi-emotion fine-grained computing for online reviews, improve the accuracy and computational efficiency of sentiment classification. The final empirical analysis found that happiness and disgust emotion had significant positive impact on the helpfulness of online reviews, while on the other hand anxiety emotion had significant negative influence. The algorithm and its empirical conclusions provide useful theoretical basis and reference for the company to optimize marketing strategy and improve customer relationship under web 2.0.

Semantic Clustering-Based Deep Hypergraph Model for Online Reviews Semantic Classification in Cyber-Physical-Social Systems

Sentiment classification of online reviews is playing an increasingly important role for both consumers and businesses in cyber-physical-social systems. However, existing works ignore the semantic correlation among different reviews, causing the ineffectiveness for sentiment classification. In this paper, a word embedding clustering-based deep hypergraph model (ECDHG) is proposed for the sentiment analysis of online reviews. The ECDHG introduces external knowledge by employing the pre-training word embeddings to express reviews. Then, semantic units are detected under the supervision of semantic cliques discovered by an improved hierarchical fast clustering algorithm. Convolutional neural networks are connected to extract the high-order textual and semantic features of reviews. Finally, the hypergraph can be constructed based on high-order relations of samples for the sentiment classification of reviews. Experiments are performed on five-domain data sets including movie, book, DVD, kitchen, and electronic to assess the performance of the proposed model compared with other seven models. The results validate that our model outperforms the compared methods in classification accuracy.

Sentiment Classification Based on Information Geometry and Deep Belief Networks

Sentiment classification for reviews has attracted increasingly more attention from the natural language processing community. By embedding prior knowledge into learning structures, classifiers often achieve a better performance than original methods. In this paper, we propose a sophisticated algorithm based on deep learning and information geometry in which the distribution of all training samples in the space is treated as prior knowledge and is encoded by deep belief networks (DBNs). From the view of information geometry, we construct the geodesic distance between the distributions over the features for classification. The study of the distributions contributes to the training of the DBN, since the distance is correlated to the error rate in the classification. Finally, we evaluate our proposal using empirical data sets that are dedicated for sentiment classification. The results show that our algorithm results in a significant improvement over existing methods.
