  Nirali Makadia

Significant advancement in e-commerce and Web 2.0 has led to the invention of several websites selling products online. These websites also facilitate the buyers to express their opinions about the products & their features in the form of reviews. Knowing these opinions and the related sentiments plays a vital role in decision making processes involving regular customers to executive managers. But these reviews are available in huge numbers hence referring them becomes a practically impossible task to achieve. Thus a new orientation of natural language processing called Opinion Mining & Summarization has emerged to deal with the problem. Feature-based Opinion Summarization is one of these summarization techniques which provide brief yet most relevant information about different features related to the target product. This paper represents an in-depth literature survey of various techniques for Feature-based Opinion Summarization.
