To help users discover relevant products and items recommender systems must learn about the likes and dislikes of users and the pros and cons of items. In this paper, we present a novel approach to building rich feature-based user profiles and item descriptions by mining user-generated reviews. We show how this information can be integrated into recommender systems to deliver better recommendations and an improved user experience.
