In this paper, we propose a movie recommendation model that uses the users' ratings as well as their reviews. To understand the user's preference from multicriteria perspectives, the proposed model is designed to apply attribute-based sentiment analysis to the reviews. For doing this, it divides the reviews left by customers into multicriteria components according to its implicit attributes, and applies BERT-based sentiment analysis to each of them. After that, our model selectively combines the attributes that each user considers important to CF to generate recommendation results. To validate usefulness of the proposed model, we applied it to the real-world movie recommendation case. Experimental results showed that the accuracy of the proposed model was improved compared to the traditional CF. This study has academic and practical significance since it presents a new approach to select and use models in consideration of individual characteristics, and to derive various attributes from a review instead of evaluating each of them.

As face-to-face communication has become difficult due to the COVID-19 pandemic, studies have been conducted to understand the impact of non-face-to-face communication, but there is a lack of research that examines this through messenger application reviews. This study aims to identify the impact of the pandemic through Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling by collecting review data of 메신저 applications in the Google Play Store and suggest service strategies accordingly. The study categorized the data based on when the pandemic started and the ratings given by users. The analysis showed that messenger is mainly used by middle-aged and older people, and that family communication increased after the pandemic. Users expressed frustration with the application's updates and found it difficult to adapt to the changes. This calls for a development approach that adjusts the frequency of updates and actively listens to user feedback. Also, providing an intuitive and simple user interface (UI) is expected to improve user satisfaction.

Satisfaction on the residential environment is a major factor influencing the choice of residence and migration, and is directly related to the quality of life in the city. As online services of real estate increases, people's evaluation on the residential environment can be easily checked and it is possible to analyze their satisfaction and its determining factors based on their evaluation. This means that a larger amount of evaluation can be used more efficiently than previously used methods such as surveys. This study analyzed the residential environment reviews of about 30,000 apartment residents collected from 'Zigbang', an online real estate service in Seoul. The apartment review of Zigbang consists of an evaluation grade on a 5-point scale and the evaluation content directly described by the dweller. At first, this study labeled apartment reviews as positive and negative based on the scores of recommended reviews that include comprehensive evaluation about apartment. Next, to classify them automatically, developed a model by using Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers(BERT), a deep learning-based natural language processing model. After that, by using SHapley Additive exPlanation(SHAP), extract word tokens that play an important role in the classification of reviews, to derive determining factors of the evaluation of the residential environment. Furthermore, by analyzing related keywords using Word2Vec, priority considerations for improving satisfaction on the residential environment were suggested. This study is meaningful that suggested a model that automatically classifies satisfaction on the residential environment into positive and negative by using apartment review big data and deep learning, which are qualitative evaluation data of residents, so that it's determining factors were derived. The result of analysis can be used as elementary data for improving the satisfaction on the residential environment, and can be used in the future evaluation of the residential environment near the apartment complex, and the design and evaluation of new complexes and infrastructure.

With the growth of the food-catering industry, consumer preferences and the number of dine-in restaurants are gradually increasing. Thus, personalized recommendation services are required to select a restaurant suitable for consumer preferences. Previous studies have used questionnaires and star-rating approaches, which do not effectively depict consumer preferences. Online reviews are the most essential sources of information in this regard. However, previous studies have aggregated online reviews into long documents, and traditional machine-learning methods have been applied to these to extract semantic representations; however, such approaches fail to consider the surrounding word or context. Therefore, this study proposes a novel review textual-based restaurant recommendation model (RT-RRM) that uses deep learning to effectively extract consumer preferences from online reviews. The proposed model concatenates consumer-restaurant interactions with the extracted high-level semantic representations and predicts consumer preferences accurately and effectively. Experiments on real-world datasets show that the proposed model exhibits excellent recommendation performance compared with several baseline models.

The collaborative filtering recommendation technique has been the most widely used since the beginning of e-commerce companies introducing the recommendation system. As the online purchase of products or contents became an ordinary thing, however, recommendation simply applying purchasers' ratings led to the problem of low accuracy in recommendation. To improve the accuracy of recommendation, in this paper suggests the method of collaborative filtering that analyses product reviews and uses them as a weighted value. The proposed method refines product reviews with text mining to extract features and conducts sentiment analysis to draw a sentiment score. In order to recommend better items to user, sentiment weight is used to calculate the predicted values. The experiment results show that higher accuracy can be gained in the proposed method than the traditional collaborative filtering.

Mobile applications (apps) play a significant role in the proliferation of smartphones. According to statistics from Apple, 100 million apps were downloaded in 2008. Since then, the number of cumulative app downloads have increased exponentially. By October 2014, 85 billion apps had been downloaded worldwide. Many studies have attempted to determine the factors that drive app downloads. However, unlike previous studies, we examine the effects of app updates on app rankings. To achieve this goal, we collected data on rankings (gross rankings and category rankings), update contents, reviewer ratings, and number of reviews on apps listed in the App Store. We then categorized app updates into functionality, reliability, and convenience updates following the buying hierarchy model. We found that functionality updates had a positive effect on app gross ranking whereas reliability updates had a positive effect on category ranking. Our study is the first to explore the effects of update content on app ranking. Moreover, our study provides a practical implication for mobile app developers, who should consider app updates in their product development strategy.

As a Social Network Service (SNS) has become an integral part of our everyday lives, millions of users can express their opinion and share information regardless of time and place. Hence sentiment analysis using micro-blogs has been studied in various field to know people's opinion on particular topics. Most of previous researches on movie reviews consider only positive and negative sentiment and use it to predict movie rating. As people feel not only positive and negative but also various emotion, the sentiment that people feel while watching a movie need to be classified in more detail to extract more information than personal preference. We measure sentiment distributions of each movie from tweets according to the Thayer's model. Then, we find similar movies by calculating similarity between each sentiment distributions. Through the experiments, we verify that our method using micro-blogs performs better than using only genre information of movies.
