• Authors: Aakash Sorathiya, Gouri Ginde,
• Abstract summary: App reviews related to ethical concerns generally use domain-specific language and are expressed using a more varied vocabulary. This study proposes a novel Natural Language Processing (NLI) based approach that combines Natural Language Inference (NLI) and a decoder-only (LLaMA-like) Large Language Model (LLM) to extract ethical concern-related app reviews at scale.

• Abstract: With the increasing proliferation of mobile applications in our everyday experiences, the concerns surrounding ethics have surged significantly. Users generally communicate their feedback, report issues, and suggest new functionalities in application (app) reviews, frequently emphasizing safety, privacy, and accountability concerns. Incorporating these reviews is essential to developing successful products. However, app reviews related to ethical concerns generally use domain-specific language and are expressed using a more varied vocabulary. Thus making automated ethical concern-related app review extraction a challenging and time-consuming effort. This study proposes a novel Natural Language Processing (NLP) based approach that combines Natural Language Inference (NLI), which provides a deep comprehension of language nuances, and a decoder-only (LLaMA-like) Large Language Model (LLM) to extract ethical concern-related app reviews at scale. Utilizing 43,647 app reviews from the mental health domain, the proposed methodology 1) Evaluates four NLI models to extract potential privacy reviews and compares the results of domain-specific privacy hypotheses with generic privacy hypotheses; 2) Evaluates four LLMs for classifying app reviews to privacy concerns; and 3) Uses the best NLI and LLM models further to extract new privacy reviews from the dataset. Results show that the DeBERTa-v3-base-mnli-fever-anli NLI model with domain-specific hypotheses yields the best performance, and Llama3.1-8B-Instruct LLM performs best in the classification of app reviews. Then, using NLI+LLM, an additional 1,008 new privacy-related reviews were extracted that were not identified through the keyword-based approach in previous research, thus demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

  An increasing number of users are voicing their privacy concerns through app reviews on App stores. The main challenge of effectively mining privacy concerns from user reviews lies in the fact that reviews expressing privacy concerns are overridden by a large number of reviews expressing more generic themes and noisy content. In this work, we propose a novel automated approach to overcome that challenge.
