Abstract: Provided is a method for detecting deceptive e-commerce reviews based on a sentiment-topic joint probability, which belongs to the fields of natural language processing, data mining and machine learning. In the data of different fields, a STM model is superior to other reference models; compared with other models, the STM model belongs to a completely un-supervised (no label information) statistic learning method and shows great advantages in processing unbalanced large sample dataset. Thus, the STM model is more suitable for application in a real e-commerce environment.
