Fake Reviews Detection through Ensemble Learning

Abstract

Customers represent their satisfactions of consuming products by sharing their experiences through the utilization of online reviews. Several machine learning-based approaches can automatically detect deceptive and fake reviews. Recently, there have been studies reporting the performance of ensemble learning-based approaches in comparison to conventional machine learning techniques. Motivated by the recent trends in ensemble learning, this paper evaluates the performance of ensemble learning-based approaches to identify bogus online information. The application of a number of ensemble learning-based approaches to a collection of fake restaurant reviews that we developed show that these ensemble learning-based approaches detect deceptive information better than conventional machine learning algorithms.
