R. G. Khedkar, S. R. Tandle . Rating Prediction based on Social Sentiment from Textual Reviews. International Journal of Computer Applications. 178, 26 ( Jun 2019), 17-20. DOI=10.5120/ijca2019919085
In recent years, we've witnessed a flourish of review websites. It presents an excellent chance to share our viewpoints for numerous merchandise we have a tendency to purchase. However, we have a tendency to face the data overloading drawback. A way to mine valuable data from reviews to grasp a user’s preferences associated build and correct recommendation is crucial. Ancient recommender systems (RS) take into account some factors, like user’s purchase records, product class, and geographic location. During this work, we have a tendency to propose a sentiment-based rating prediction methodology (RPS) to enhance prediction accuracy in recommender systems. Firstly, we have a tendency to propose a social user sentimental measuring approach and calculate every user’s sentiment on items/products. Secondly, we have a tendency to not solely take into account a user’s own sentimental attributes however additionally take social sentimental influence into thought. Then, we have a tendency to take into account product name, which might be inferred by the sentimental distributions of a user set that replicate customers’ comprehensive analysis. At last, we have a tendency to fuse 3 factors-user sentiment similarity, social sentimental influence, and associated item’s name similarity into our recommender system to form a correct rating prediction. We have a tendency to conduct a performance analysis of the 3 sentimental factors on a real-world dataset collected from Yelp. Our experimental results show the sentiment will well characterize user preferences that facilitate to enhance the advice performance.
