고객들은 조작된 온라인 리뷰가 범람하는 가운데 진정성과 가치를 지닌 리뷰를 보고자한다. 귀인 이론(Attribution theory)의 관점에서, 사람들은 리뷰어의 과거 평가 이력을 바탕으로 리뷰가 진정성 있는지를 판단하는 경향이 있다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구의 목적은 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력이 조작된 리뷰로 인식하는 것에 어떠한 영향을 미치며, 최종적으로 리뷰 유용성이 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것이다. 제안된 가설을 검증하기 위해 2차 데이터 분석(연구1)과 실험(연구2)을 수행했으며, 두 연구는 일관된 결과를 보여준다. 연구 1은 리뷰어의 과거 평가 이력이 리뷰 유용성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 귀인이론에 근거하면, 사람들은 리뷰를 다른 목적을 가지고 작성되었다고 인식할 경우에 리뷰가 조작되었다고 생각하고, 그 리뷰가 물건이나 서비스의 진정한 가치를 평가하지 않았다고 간주한다. 따라서 해당 리뷰는 유용성이 낮게 평가되는 경향이 있다. 2차 데이터를 분석하기 위해 우리는 Python을 이용한 웹 스크레이퍼를 개발하여 TripAdvisor(TripAdvisor.com)에서 호텔 정보, 리뷰, 리뷰 정보 등의 연구 데이터를 수집하였다. 수집한 890명 리뷰어에 대한 100,621개의 리뷰를 분석하기 위해 음이항 회귀 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 평균 평점을 낮게 주는 리뷰어의 경우에 리뷰 유용성에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 사람들은 극단적인 평점을 거의 주지 않는 리뷰어가 작성한 리뷰가 더 도움이 된다고 평가했다. 연구 2는 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력을 기준으로 리뷰가 조작되었다고 평가하는 사람들의 인식 프로세스를 실험하였다. 실험 결과, 사람들은 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력이 평균적으로 평점을 낮게 주는 경우에는 리뷰가 의심스럽다고 판단하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 사람들은 리뷰어가 대부분 극단적인 평점을 주는 이력이 있다면 해당 리뷰어가 작성한 리뷰가 의심스럽다고 판단하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구2는 사람들이 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력을 바탕으로 리뷰가 조작되었는지 또는 리뷰가 도움이 되는지 판단하는 경향이 있음을 보여준다. 본 연구는 귀인이론을 바탕으로 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력이 리뷰 조작성에 대한 인식과 리뷰 유용성에 미치는 영향을 분석하여, 해당 연구분야에 새로운 관점을 추가한 기여점이 있다.

As the influence of online reviews on consumer decision-making increases, concerns about review manipulation are also increasing. Fake reviews or review manipulations are emerging as an important problem by posting untrue reviews in order to increase sales volume, causing the consumer's reverse choice, and acting at a high cost to the society as a whole. Most of the related prior studies have focused on predicting review manipulation through data mining methods, and research from a consumer perspective is insufficient. However, since the possibility of manipulation of reviews perceived by consumers can affect the usefulness of reviews, it can provide important implications for online word-of-mouth management regardless of whether it is false or not. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed whether there is a difference between the review evaluated by the consumer as being manipulated and the general review, and verified whether the manipulated review negatively affects the review usefulness. For empirical analysis, 34,711 online book reviews on the LibraryThing website were analyzed using multilevel logistic regression analysis and Poisson regression analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was found that there were differences in product level, reviewer level, and review level factors between reviews that consumers perceived as being manipulated and reviews that were not. In addition, manipulated reviews have been shown to negatively affect review usefulness.

Fraudulent companies or sellers strategically manipulate reviews to influence customers' purchase decisions; therefore, the reliability of reviews has become crucial for customer decision-making. Since customers increasingly rely on online reviews to search for more detailed information about products or services before purchasing, many researchers focus on detecting manipulated reviews. However, the main problem in detecting manipulated reviews is the difficulties with obtaining data with manipulated reviews to utilize machine learning techniques with sufficient data. Also, the number of manipulated reviews is insufficient compared with the number of non-manipulated reviews, so the class imbalance problem occurs. The class with fewer examples is under-represented and can hamper a model's accuracy, so machine learning methods suffer from the class imbalance problem and solving the class imbalance problem is important to build an accurate model for detecting manipulated reviews. Thus, we propose an OpenAI-based reviews generation model to solve the manipulated reviews imbalance problem, thereby enhancing the accuracy of manipulated reviews detection. In this research, we applied the novel autoregressive language model - GPT-3 to generate reviews based on manipulated reviews. Moreover, we found that applying GPT-3 model for oversampling manipulated reviews can recover a satisfactory portion of performance losses and shows better performance in classification (logit, decision tree, neural networks) than traditional oversampling models such as random oversampling and SMOTE.

It is more important to ensure the credibility of internet media which influence the public opinion. However, there are vague suspicions in public from the examples of manipulation of online reviews with anonymity. In this study, we explore the possibility of manipulating public opinion in online web sites. We investigate the characteristics of comments posted by users on web sites and compare each comments by using the cosine similarity function. Our result shows followings. First, we found a correlation between the similarities of comments and the article ranks in the web sites. Second, it is possible to identify abnormal user activities indicating excessive multiple posting, double posting and astroturf activities.

Collaboration has become essential in the product design process due to internationalized and specialized business environments. This study presents a real-time collaborative 3D design workspace for distributed designers, focusing on the development and the evaluation of new interaction techniques supporting nonverbal communication such as awareness of participants, shared manipulation and tele-presence. Requirements were identified in terms of shared objects, shared workspaces and awareness through literature reviews and an observational study. An Augmented Reality based collaborative design workspace was developed, in which two main interaction techniques, Turn-table and Virtual Shadow, were incorporated to support shared manipulation and tele-presence. Turn-table provides intuitive shared manipulation of 3D models and physical cues for awareness of remote participants. Virtual shadow supports natural and continuous awareness of location, gestures and pointing of partners. A lab-based evaluation was conducted and the results showed that interaction techniques effectively supported awareness of general pointing and facilitated discussion in 3D model reviews. The workspace and the interaction techniques can facilitate more natural communication and increase the efficiency of collaboration on virtual 3D models between distributed participants (designer-designer, engineer, or modeler) in collaborative design environments.

Genetic engineering, which was started by the E. coli gene manipulation, has led to rapid development in all area of life sciences. Recently, genetic engineering, which is an insertion or a removal technique of a specific gene on chromosomes, has been established and is usefully available in the applied life sciences including medicine and agriculture. In this review, we briefly explain pest management focusing on Release of Insects carrying a Dominant Lethal (RIDL) that is a highly economic and environment-friendly method of biological pest control. Although at present RIDL confronts many difficulties in applying directly in fields, it will be one of the best methods for the pest management in the near future without pesticides and disturbing ecosystem by the continued development of genetic engineering. However, these powerful techniques must be considered with great care to avoid harm to ecosystem.

Due to the prevalent use of online systems and the increasing amount of accessible information, the influence of recommender systems is growing bigger than ever. However, there are several attempts by malicious users who try to compromise or manipulate the reliability of recommender systems with cyber-attacks. By analyzing the ratio of 'sympathy' against 'apathy' responses about a concerned review and reflecting the results in a recommendation system, we could present a way to improve the performance of a recommender system and maintain a robust system. After collecting and applying actual movie review data, we found that our proposed recommender system showed an improved performance compared to the existing recommendation systems.
