Abstract

Due to the improvement of online shopping mode, an increasing number of customers rely on reviews displayed on online shopping websites to choose products, and there are also more and more sellers taking consumers' text reviews into consideration to modify their products. Therefore, understanding and analyzing these reviews are getting increasingly significant. This study utilized natural language processing on E-Commerce Reviews. First, I used the Naïve Bayes model and Support Vector Machine to classify whether a reviewer recommends the reviewed product; the accuracies are both 87%. Then I used the random forest to classify the reviewer's positive, neutral, and negative sentiment on each review, which gave 86% precision.

Keywords:
