Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The rapid growth of e-commerce has highlighted the critical need for efficient customer review sentiment analysis, yet natural language complexities like sarcasm and mixed sentiments remain challenging. To address these ambiguities, this study proposes a novel sentiment analysis architecture. The methodology integrates a bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) network with a Luong Attention mechanism. The Bi-LSTM component models the sequential and bidirectional context of the text, while the Luong Attention mechanism isolates and emphasizes the most significant parts of the reviews for precise sentiment detection. The proposed hybrid model demonstrates exceptional performance compared to traditional methods, achieving an accuracy of 96.67%, a precision of 96.83%, and a recall of 96.67%, alongside relatively low overfitting. Ultimately, the findings confirm that this architecture effectively manages ambiguous language and is highly capable of large-scale, real-time sentiment analysis, offering robust analytical tools for shaping e-commerce marketing strategies.
