[Objective] This paper proposes a product selection method based on the Feature Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit model (F-BiGRU), aiming to improve the efficiency of customers’ product selection and help them make better shopping decisions. [Methods] First, we retrieved online reviews for related products. Then, we categorized these online reviews in accordance with the product attributes. Third, we trained the F-BiGRU model using positive and negative reviews. Fourth, we quantified the sentiment of reviews on different attributes with the F-BiGRU model. Finally, we got the degrees of satisfaction on product attributes, and sorted the products using TOPSIS method. [Results] We retrieved the review texts on cars to conduct an empirical analysis. We found that the F-BiGRU method improved the accuracy of sentiment analysis, and is more appropriate for the short text reviews than traditional methods. [Limitations] The proposed deep learning model requires large dataset, which limits its performance with smaller datasets. [Conclusions] The product selection method based on F-BiGRU helps consumers choose needed products more efficiently.
