Impact of Sentiment Analysis in Fake Review Detection

Abstract: Fake review identification is an important topic and has gained the interest of experts all around the world. Identifying fake reviews is challenging for researchers, and there are several primary challenges to fake review detection. We propose developing an initial research paper for investigating fake reviews by using sentiment analysis. Ten research papers are identified that show fake reviews, and they discuss currently available solutions for predicting or detecting fake reviews. They also show the distribution of fake and truthful reviews through the analysis of sentiment. We summarize and compare previous studies related to fake reviews. We highlight the most significant challenges in the sentiment evaluation process and demonstrate that there is a significant impact on sentiment scores used to identify fake feedback.
