Abstract

An e-commerce reputation analysis system includes a comment data capturing module, a keyword retrieving module, a sentiment analysis module and a reputation analysis module. The comment data capturing module captures comment data from an e-commerce platform according to an analysis item. The keyword retrieving module retrieves keywords from the comment data. The sentiment analysis module compares each keyword with sentiment groups. When a first feature phrase of feature phrases of the sentiment groups matches with a first keyword of the keywords, the sentiment analysis module determines that the sentiment group having the first feature phase is corresponding to the first keyword, and increases a rating of the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword. The reputation analysis module selects first sentiment groups corresponding to the analysis item from the sentiment groups,and statistically sums the ratings of the first sentiment groups.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An e-commerce reputation analysis system, comprising:
a comment data capturing module configured to capture comment data from an e-commerce platform according to an analysis item; a keyword retrieving module configured to retrieve a plurality of keywords in the comment data; a sentiment analysis module comprising a plurality of sentiment groups, each of the sentiment groups comprising a plurality of feature phrases, the sentiment analysis module being configured to compare each of the keywords with the sentiment groups, wherein when a first feature phrase of the feature phrases in the sentiment groups matches with a first keyword of the keywords, the sentiment analysis module determines that the sentiment group having the first feature is a sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword, and increases a rating of the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword; and a reputation analysis module configured to select a plurality of first sentiment groups corresponding to the analysis item from the sentiment groups, and sum the ratings of the first sentiment groups.

2 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 1 , wherein when none of the feature phrases in the sentiment groups matches with the first keyword of the keywords, the sentiment analysis module translates the first keyword to generate a corresponding translated phrase in a language different from that used by the first keyword, and performs a similarity comparison between the corresponding translated phrase and the feature phrases of each of the sentiment groups, thereby generating a comparison result, wherein when determining that there exists the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword according to the comparison result, the sentiment analysis module increases the rating of the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword.

3 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 2 , wherein the sentiment analysis module performs the similarity comparison between the corresponding translated phrase and the feature phrases of each of the sentiment groups by using a unigram or bigram method.

4 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 2 , wherein when determining that there exists the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword according to the comparison result, the sentiment analysis module further sets the first keyword as a second feature phrase, and adds the second feature phrase to the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword, thereby updating the feature phrases included in the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword.

5 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 2 , wherein the sentiment analysis module comprises a feature vocabulary used to store the feature phrases in each of the sentiment groups, wherein when determining that there exists the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword according to the comparison result, the sentiment analysis module sets the first keyword as a second feature phrase, and adds the second feature phrase to the feature vocabulary.

6 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 1 , wherein the keyword retrieving module comprises:
a word segmentation unit configured to perform a word segmentation algorithm on contents of the comment data, thereby obtaining a plurality of phrase segments; a word property recognition unit configured to recognize properties of the phrase segments; and a word retrieving unit configured to retrieve the phrase segments having nouns and adjectives as a plurality of keyword candidates, and to retrieve the keywords from the keyword candidates.

7 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 6 , wherein the word retrieving unit retrieves the keywords according to appearing frequencies of the keyword candidates and correlations between the keyword candidates and the analysis item.

8 . The e-commerce reputation analysis system of claim 1 , wherein the analysis item is merchandise, a seller or an activity on the e-commerce platform.

9 . An e-commerce reputation analysis method, comprising:
capturing comment data from an e-commerce platform according to an analysis item; retrieving a plurality of keywords in the comment data; comparing each of the keywords with the sentiment groups, wherein each of the sentiment groups comprises a plurality of feature phrases; determining that the sentiment group having the first feature is a sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword when a first feature phrase of the feature phrases in the sentiment groups matches with a first keyword of the keywords; increasing a rating of the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword; selecting a plurality of first sentiment groups corresponding to the analysis item from the sentiment groups; and summing the ratings of the first sentiment groups.

10 . The e-commerce reputation analysis method of claim 9 , further comprising:
translating the first keyword to generate a corresponding translated phrase in a language different from that used by the first keyword when none of the feature phrases in the sentiment groups matches with the first keyword of the keywords; performing a similarity comparison between the corresponding translated phrase and the feature phrases of each of the sentiment groups, thereby generating a comparison result; and increasing the rating of the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword when it is determined that there exists the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword according to the comparison result.

11 . The e-commerce reputation analysis method of claim 10 , wherein the step of performing a similarity comparison between the corresponding translated phrase and the feature phrases of each of the sentiment groups comprises:
performing the similarity comparison between the corresponding translated phrase and the feature phrases of each of the sentiment groups by using a unigram or bigram method.

12 . The e-commerce reputation analysis method of claim 10 , wherein when it is determined that there exists the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword according to the comparison result, the e-commerce reputation analysis method further comprises:
setting the first keyword as a second feature phrase; and adding the second feature phrase to the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword, thereby updating the feature phrases included in the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword.

13 . The e-commerce reputation analysis method of claim 10 , wherein when it is determined that there exists the sentiment group corresponding to the first keyword according to the comparison result, the e-commerce reputation analysis method further comprises:
setting the first keyword as a second feature phrase; and adding the second feature phrase to the feature vocabulary.

14 . The e-commerce reputation analysis method of claim 9 , wherein the step of retrieving the keywords in the comment data comprises:
performing a word segmentation algorithm on contents of the comment data, thereby obtaining a plurality of phrase segments; recognizing properties of the phrase segments; retrieving the phrase segments having nouns and adjectives as a plurality of keyword candidates; and retrieving the keywords from the keyword candidates.

15 . The e-commerce reputation analysis method of claim 14 , wherein the step of retrieving the keywords from the keyword candidates comprises:
retrieving the keywords according to appearing frequencies of the keyword candidates and correlations between the keyword ca
