Negative reviews, the poor ratings in postpurchase evaluation, play an indispensable role in e-commerce, especially in shaping future sales and firm equities. However, extant studies seldom examine their potential value for sellers and producers in enhancing capabilities of providing better services and products. For those who exploited the helpfulness of reviews in the view of e-commerce keepers, the ranking approaches were developed for customers instead. To fill this gap, in terms of combining description texts and emotion polarities, the aim of the ranking method in this study is to provide the most helpful negative reviews under a certain product attribute for online sellers and producers. By applying a more reasonable evaluating procedure, experts with related backgrounds are hired to vote for the ranking approaches. Our ranking method turns out to be more reliable for ranking negative reviews for sellers and producers, demonstrating a better performance than the baselines like BM25 with a result of 8% higher. In this paper, we also enrich the previous understandings of emotions in valuing reviews. Specifically, it is surprisingly found that positive emotions are more helpful rather than negative emotions in ranking negative reviews. The unexpected strengthening from positive emotions in ranking suggests that less polarized reviews on negative experience in fact offer more rational feedbacks and thus more helpfulness to the sellers and producers. The presented ranking method could provide e-commerce practitioners with an efficient and effective way to leverage negative reviews from online consumers.

Prior work has revealed that positive words occur more frequently than negative words in human expressions, which is typically attributed to positivity bias, a tendency for people to report positive views of reality. But what about the language used in negative reviews? Consistent with prior work, we show that English negative reviews tend to contain more positive words than negative words, using a variety of datasets. We reconcile this observation with prior findings on the pragmatics of negation, and show that negations are commonly associated with positive words in negative reviews. Furthermore, in negative reviews, the majority of sentences with positive words express negative opinions based on sentiment classifiers, indicating some form of negation.
Modern E-commerce websites contain heterogeneous sources of information, such as numerical ratings, textual reviews and images. These information can be utilized to assist recommendation. Through textual reviews, a user explicitly express her affinit y towards the item. Previous researchers found that by using the information extracted from these reviews, we can better profile the users explicit preferences as well as the item features, leading to the improvement of recommendation performance. However, most of the previous algorithms were only utilizing the review information for explicit-feedback problem i.e. rating prediction, and when it comes to implicit-feedback ranking problem such as top-N recommendation, the usage of review information has not been fully explored. Seeing this gap, in this work, we investigate the effectiveness of textual review information for top-N recommendation under E-commerce settings. We adapt several SOTA review-based rating prediction models for top-N recommendation tasks and compare them to existing top-N recommendation models from both performance and efficiency. We find that models utilizing only review information can not achieve better performances than vanilla implicit-feedback matrix factorization method. When utilizing review information as a regularizer or auxiliary information, the performance of implicit-feedback matrix factorization method can be further improved. However, the optimal model structure to utilize textual reviews for E-commerce top-N recommendation is yet to be determined.
Ensemble models in E-commerce combine predictions from multiple sub-models for ranking and revenue improvement. Industrial ensemble models are typically deep neural networks, following the supervised learning paradigm to infer conversion rate given i nputs from sub-models. However, this process has the following two problems. Firstly, the point-wise scoring approach disregards the relationships between items and leads to homogeneous displayed results, while diversified display benefits user experience and revenue. Secondly, the learning paradigm focuses on the ranking metrics and does not directly optimize the revenue. In our work, we propose a new Learning-To-Ensemble (LTE) framework RAEGO, which replaces the ensemble model with a contextual Rank Aggregator (RA) and explores the best weights of sub-models by the Evaluator-Generator Optimization (EGO). To achieve the best online performance, we propose a new rank aggregation algorithm TournamentGreedy as a refinement of classic rank aggregators, which also produces the best average weighted Kendall Tau Distance (KTD) amongst all the considered algorithms with quadratic time complexity. Under the assumption that the best output list should be Pareto Optimal on the KTD metric for sub-models, we show that our RA algorithm has higher efficiency and coverage in exploring the optimal weights. Combined with the idea of Bayesian Optimization and gradient descent, we solve the online contextual Black-Box Optimization task that finds the optimal weights for sub-models given a chosen RA model. RA-EGO has been deployed in our online system and has improved the revenue significantly.

The number and quality of user reviews greatly affects consumer purchasing decisions. While reviews in all languages are increasing, it is still often the case (especially for non-English speakers) that there are only a few reviews in a persons first language. Using an online experiment, we examine the value that potential purchasers receive from interfaces showing additional reviews in a second language. The results paint a complicated picture with both positive and negative reactions to the inclusion of foreign-language reviews. Roughly 26-28% of subjects clicked to see translations of the foreign-language content when given the opportunity, and those who did so were more likely to select the product with foreign-language reviews than those who did not.

Nowadays, with many e-commerce platforms conducting global business, e-commerce search systems are required to handle product retrieval under multilingual scenarios. Moreover, comparing with maintaining per-country specific e-commerce search systems, having a universal system across countries can further reduce the operational and computational costs, and facilitate business expansion to new countries. In this paper, we introduce a universal end-to-end multilingual retrieval system, and discuss our learnings and technical details when training and deploying the system to serve billion-scale product retrieval for e-commerce search. In particular, we propose a multilingual graph attention based retrieval network by leveraging recent advances in transformer-based multilingual language models and graph neural network architectures to capture the interactions between search queries and items in e-commerce search. Offline experiments on five countries data show that our algorithm outperforms the state-of-the-art baselines by 35% recall and 25% mAP on average. Moreover, the proposed model shows significant increase of conversion/revenue in online A/B experiments and has been deployed in production for multiple countries.
