Abstract:
|
By integrating network analysis with text sentiment mining techniques, we propose product comparison networks as a novel construct, computed from consumer product reviews. To test the validity of the therefrom derived product ranking measures, we conduct an empirical study based on a digital camera dataset from Amazon.com. The results demonstrate significant effect of network-based measures on product sales.

Abstract:
|
The focus of our presentation is the issue of manipulation in Top-N news recommender systems (NRS). These automated systems are target of manipulators who hire people to promote their articles or apps farther up in the roster. We address the issue of manipulation in NRS through a class of feedback functions and an adapted influence limiter algorithm – both are used in conjunction. We show that the proposed recommendation technique performs very well to thwart common manipulation strategies.
