This project can be used for marketing area because of the data was about review on I- phone. Nevertheless, it’s only accepts English standard word. In order to achieve the main objective, five phases of methodology was been implemented which are preliminary study, data preparation, model development, model evaluation & prototype development and last but not list is documentation.

Two experiments were carried out with different amount of data. At the first experiment, 200 data was used and the accuracy was 60 percent, while decrease data into 125 during experiment two, the accuracy was 56 percent only.
