摘要

Online reviews play a key role in deciding purchases by the customers. However, the proliferation of fake reviews has made it hard to differentiate between real and fake reviews. Manual classification of reviews is subjective, and traditional methods are limited in accuracy. To address this issue, we propose a novel Parallel Hybrid k-means and Henry Gas Solubility Optimization (H-KHGSO) algorithm for detecting fake reviews in social media. The H-KHGSO algorithm capitalizes on the strengths of k-means clustering to initialize the initial population and Henry Gas Solubility Optimization (HGSO) to find optimal cluster heads. Leveraging Hadoop’s distributed computing capabilities, our parallel approach enhances computational efficiency and accelerates the detection process. To validate the effectiveness of H-KHGSO, experiments on three distinct spam review datasets, including SSR, MR, and YHRR, were investigated against state-of-the-art clustering methods, including PSO, DE, GA, CS, GWOK, and k-means. The comparative analysis confirmed the superiority of the H-KHGSO algorithm.
