In order to buy the right products for the individuals and to make the business decisions for the Organization online reviews are very important.

Also, detecting the spam reviews has also become more critical issue for the customer to make good decision during the purchase of the product. A major problem in identifying the fake review detection is high dimensionality of the feature space. Therefore, feature selection is an essential step in the fake review detection to reduce dimensionality of the feature space and to improve the classification accuracy. Hence it is important to detect the spam reviews but the major issues in spam review detection are the high dimensionality of feature space which contains redundant, noisy and irrelevant features. To resolve this, Deep Learning Techniques for selecting features is necessary. To classify the features, classifiers such as Naive Bayes, K Nearest Neighbor are used. An analysis of the various techniques employed to identify false and genuine reviews has been surveyed.
