The document is a project proposal for a review detection framework called NetSpam. The proposal includes an abstract that describes how online reviews influence online marketing and sales, but spammers can post fake reviews to promote or demote products. The project aims to implement a novel approach using review-behavioral features to identify spam reviews based on metadata rather than text. The proposal also lists modules for the admin, users, and registration/authentication. It specifies PHP for the front end, MySQL for the back end, and hardware requirements of an i3 processor, 2GHz speed, 2GB RAM, and 160GB hard drive.

PROJECT TITLE : NetSpam a Review Detection Framework
ABSTRACT : (Minimum 100 words)
Applications developed for Web plays the important role in the Internet now a day. Since Online Social Media applications plays a vital role in information transmission which is considered as an important source for the business people who rely in their advertising campaigns as well as for customers in selecting products and services. Also these applications provides an option to put a review for a particular product or some thing as they use these applications. So these reviews and ratings plays an important role in the sales of such product. Now any buyer in the online market does not buy any thing without looking the review or rank of the product which was given by other audiences. So the review and rating plays a vital role in online marketing. Here the spammers intrudes to collapse the original rating given by the original users. Spammers gives duplicate rating to promote or demote any product. Since only the summary of the rating and not the individual rating of lakhs of users can be shown it is hard to detect the spam rating from the original rating. In this paper we implement a novel approach named Review-Behavioral based features to extract the spam review from the original review. Here the rating is not based on the text itself, instead it is decided by the meta data of the transaction. It is minutely observed that a review given by the user is spam or not. Here only the original user who truly buy the product is taken into account, and not all the users or spammers who simply login the site and gives the rating. By this the original rating of the content is acquired and thus the real rating of the product among users can be found.
