Nowadays more and more people like to publish their comments on a product on the Web. Mining such unstructured data (product reviews) is exciting hot and challenging research and application topic. In this paper, we focus on mining product reviews written in Chinese. We aim at extract the structural information from Chinese product reviews. By structural information, we mean product features and corresponding opinion words expressed in each review text. There are already some works done for reviews written in English, but less in Chinese. In this paper, we propose an effective method to extract candidate features and some effective pruning rules to prune the features. Also, we introduce a pattern extraction and matching step to improve our results. The experiment results show our approach is very effective, and has a good recall and precision.
