V. CONCLUSIONS

In this study, we have illustrated many semi-

supervised and supervised text mining strategies for
identifying fake online feedback. In order to build a
superior feature collection, we have merged features
from many test projects. We have also tested several
other classifiers that have not been included in
previous work. Therefore, we have been able to
improve the precision of Jiten et al.[8previous ]'s
semi-supervised techniques. We have also pointed

supervised Naive Bayes classifier. This means that
our dataset is labelled well, so we recognise that
when accurate labelling is not accessible, the semi-
supervised model works well.
We have just worked on consumer feedback of our
analysis work. In the future, it is feasible to merge
consumer actions with texts to build a stronger
classification model. In order to render the dataset
more reliable, sophisticated preprocessing techniques
for tokenization can be used. For a wider data
collection, assessment of the feasibility of the
suggested technique may be conducted. This research
work is only being carried out for feedback in
English. For Bangla and many other languages, this
can be chieved.
