온라인에서 제품을 고르고 실질적인 구매는 오프라인에서 이루어지는 역 쇼루밍이 급격히 늘고 있다. 역 쇼루밍이 늘고 있다는 것은 이미지와 설명을 기반으로 한 인터넷 쇼핑몰의 사용자 분석에 한계가 있음을 의미한다. 따라서 대형 온라인 쇼핑몰은 고객 맞춤형 쇼핑정보를 제공하고 있으나, 단순히 고객이 검색하거나 구매한 상품을 나열하여 제공하여 준다. 따라서 사용자의 다양한 요구를 분석하고 적용할 수 있는 온라인 쇼핑몰이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 새로운 니즈분석 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 사용자 정의 모듈과 후기 분석 모듈로 구성되어 있다. 전자는 두 개의 상품을 지정하고 개인별 사용자 선호도를 수집하며, 후자는 저장된 데이터베이스 사전을 이용하여 구매 상품의 후기를 분석한다. 구현된 시스템은 개별 사용자의 요구를 충족하는 상품을 추천할 수 있음을 보였다.

This study conducts topic modeling analysis on four electric scooter sharing platforms: Alpaca, SingSing, Kickgoing, and Beam. Using user review data, the study aims to identify key topics and issues associated with each platform, as well as uncover common themes across platforms. The analysis reveals that users primarily express concerns and preferences related to application usability, service mobility, and parking/accessibility. Additionally, each platform exhibits unique characteristics and challenges. Alpaca users generally appreciate convenience and enjoyment but express concerns about safety and service areas. SingSing faces issues with application functionality, while Kickgoing users encounter connectivity problems and device usability issues. Beam receives overall positive feedback, but users express dissatisfaction with application usability and parking. Based on these findings, scooter sharing service providers should focus on enhancing application features, stability, and expanding service coverage to meet user expectations and improve customer satisfaction. Furthermore, highlighting platform-specific strengths and providing tailored services can enhance competitiveness and foster continuous service growth and development.

Individuals depend considerably on gathering information from personal social networks rather than from commercial network channels or the mass media. Most academic journals that have examined this topic concentrate on online users' information-searching behaviours; however, this paper discusses online users' information-providing behaviour in the online community. The aim of this study is to investigate that online users' motivation to write reviews on Facebook and how the motivations affect users' information-providing behaviour. This study focusses on Facebook members' motivations that affect their review-writing behaviour. The fundamental theory for examining this topic is Vogt and Fesenmaier's (1998) 'information need'. This study modifies Vogt and Fesenmaier's (1998) theory for virtual communities through the development of each concept's measurement items, selecting the information need of four variables: functional, hedonic, innovation, and sign need. Among the four variables, sign need is the most important factor for Facebook users in the virtual environment. Through sign need, people indicate their status, personality form, and position, which significantly affects members' review-writing behaviour on Facebook.

This study examines how an initially perceived product value affects consumer's purchase intention after reading online reviews with various tones. The study proposes that associations among initially perceived overall product value, degree of confirmation resulting from reading the reviews, and final purchase intention differ across review tones such that 1) when the tone is favorable, the effect of an initially perceived product value is stronger than when the tone is critical, and 2) when the tone is extreme, the effect of confirmation is stronger than when the tone is moderate. The survey was conducted with 276 online shopping mall users in Korea, and most of the hypotheses were supported. This study asserts that the effects of online reviews should be considered together with customer's level of expectation formed prior to reading online reviews, which resulted from extensive search and screening processes that the customer went through before reading online reviews.

Given the increasing information overload among users of online review websites, understanding the manner in which cognitive costs are reduced and efficient information is made reliable has become increasingly important. This study targets a unique consumer review design and explores how reviews from an external peer-to-peer site embedded in an online travel agency (OTA) website influence subsequent evaluation behaviors. The empirical results indicate that (1) embedded external reviews with a high average valence tend to strengthen the influence of the positive evaluation ratio while diminishing the effect of the review volume, and (2) embedded external reviews with a large variance strengthen the positive effect of the review volume while weakening the effect of the positive evaluation ratio on subsequent positive evaluations. The findings provide practical insights for consumers and online platforms.

소셜 네트워크 서비스(SNS)의 활성화로 웹상에는 방대한 양의 온라인 리뷰들이 생산되고 있으며, 이러한 온라인 리뷰들은 다양한 콘텐츠들에 대한 의견 데이터로써 콘텐츠 이용자와 제공자들에게 가치 있는 정보로 활용되고 있다. 한편, 온라인 리뷰에 대한 중요도가 높아짐에 따라 온라인 리뷰를 분석하여 글쓴이의 의견이나 평가, 태도, 감정 등을 추출해 내는 오피니언마이닝에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 오피니언마이닝 연구들에서는 리뷰의 의견 분류에만 초점을 맞추어 감성 분석 기법을 설계하였기 때문에 리뷰 속에 내포되어있는 작성자의 자세한 만족도까지는 알 수 없었으며, 감성 분석 기법이 특정 콘텐츠에 한정되어있어 도메인이 같지 않은 다른 콘텐츠들에는 적용될 수 없다는 문제점이 있었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존 의견 분류 방법에 강도를 주어 좀 더 세밀한 감성 분석을 수행하고, 이 결과를 통계적 척도에 적용하여 리뷰에 내포되어 있는 작성자의 자세한 만족도를 도출 할 수 있는 감성 분석 기법을 제안한다, 그리고 제안한 기법을 바탕으로 도메인에 상관없이 다양한 콘텐츠에 적용되어 콘텐츠의 만족도를 분석 할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다. 또한 방대한 양의 리뷰 데이터들을 빠르고 효율적으로 처리하기 위해 빅 데이터 처리도구인 하둡을 기반으로 시스템을 구축하였다. 본 시스템을 통해 콘텐츠 이용자는 보다 효율적인 의사결정을, 제공자들은 빠른 반응분석을 할 수 있어 본 시스템은 사용자의 의견을 필요로 하는 다양한 분야에 매우 실용적으로 활용 될 것으로 기대한다.

In this paper, we proposed a multi-subject-level sentiment analysis model for user reviews using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) method targeting user-generated content (UGC). Data were collected from users' online reviews of hotels in major tourist cities in the world, and 30 hotel-related topics were extracted using the entire user reviews through the LDA technique. Six major hotel-related themes (Cleanliness, Location, Rooms, Service, Sleep Quality, and Value) were selected from the extracted themes, and emotions were evaluated for sentences corresponding to six themes in each user review in the proposed sentiment analysis model. Sentiment was analyzed using a dictionary. In addition, the performance of the proposed sentiment analysis model was evaluated by comparing the emotional values for each subject in the user reviews and the detailed scores evaluated by the user directly for each hotel attribute. As a result of analyzing the values of accuracy and recall of the proposed sentiment analysis model, it was analyzed that the efficiency was high.

User reviews posted in the application market show high relevance with the satisfaction of application users and its significance has been proven from numerous studies. User reviews are also crucial data as they are essential for improving applications after its release. However, as infinite amounts of user reviews are posted per day, application developers are unable to examine every user review and address them. Simply addressing the reviews in a chronological order will not be enough for an adequate user satisfaction given the limited resources of the developers. As such, the following research suggests a systematical method of analyzing user reviews with a cost-benefit analysis, in which the benefit of each user review is quantified based on the number of positive/negative words and the cost of each user review is quantified by using function point, a technique that measures software size.

The number and variety of products and services offered by companies have increased dramatically, providing customers with more choices to meet their needs. As a solution to this information overload problem, the provision of tailored services to individuals has become increasingly important, and the personalized recommender systems have been widely studied and used in both academia and industry. Existing recommender systems face important problems in practical applications. The most important problem is that it cannot clearly explain why it recommends these products. In recent years, some researchers have found that the explanation of recommender systems may be very useful. As a result, users are generally increasing conversion rates, satisfaction, and trust in the recommender system if it is explained why those particular items are recommended. Therefore, this study presents a methodology of providing an explanatory function of a recommender system using a review text left by a user. The basic idea is not to use all of the user's reviews, but to provide them in a summarized form using only reviews left by similar users or neighbors involved in recommending the item as an explanation when providing the recommended item to the user. To achieve this research goal, this study aims to provide a product recommendation list using user-based collaborative filtering techniques, combine reviews left by neighboring users with each product to build a model that combines text summary methods among deep learning-based natural language processing methods. Using the IMDb movie database, text reviews of all target user neighbors' movies are collected and summarized to present descriptions of recommended movies. There are several text summary methods, but this study aims to evaluate whether the review summary is well performed by training the Sequence-to-sequence+attention model, which is a representative generation summary method, and the BertSum model, which is an extraction summary model.
