Abstract

Essential oils are obtained from various parts of plants (such as roots, stems, and leaves) through different processes. Essential oils are used in a wide range of fields, including cosmetics such as shampoos, gels, and creams, as well as cleaning, pharmaceuticals, food, and healthcare, making them important and beneficial products. In today's era of technological advancements, internet usage has become quite widespread. Through the internet, people can easily access all kinds of data and information, as well as shop from anywhere where the internet is available. This convenience provided by the internet brings many benefits to both producers and consumers. Today, with data mining techniques such as text mining and web mining, irregular data on the internet can be collected and meaningful results can be derived. In this study, user comments on tea tree oil and cosmetic products containing tea tree oil were obtained from a publicly accessible e-commerce platform. The comments were analyzed using text and web mining methods. RapidMiner software was utilized to determine the most frequently occurring words in the comments, visualize them by creating word clouds, and perform sentiment analysis. Upon evaluating the results, it was found that user satisfaction for both tea tree oil and cosmetic products containing tea tree oil was similar. Furthermore, it was observed that both product options are used for skin-related issues, such as acne, from a health perspective.

Özet

Bitkilerin çeşitli kısımlarından (kök, gövde, yaprak gibi) farklı işlemlere tabii tutularak uçucu yağlar elde edilmektedir. Uçucu yağlar, şampuan, jel ve krem gibi kozmetik ürünlerin yanı sıra temizlik, ilaç, gıda ve sağlık gibi birçok farklı alanlarda kullanılır ve oldukça önemli, faydalı ürünlerdir. Teknolojik gelişmelerin ilerlediği günümüzde internet kullanımı oldukça yaygınlaşmıştır. İnternet aracılığıyla insanlar istediği her türlü veri ve bilgiye ulaşabilmekle beraber internetin olduğu her yerden kolayca alışveriş yapabilmektedirler. İnternetin sunduğu bu kolaylık üretici ve tüketici kesime birçok faydalar sağlamaktadır. Günümüzde veri madenciliği yöntemlerinden metin madenciliği ve web madenciliği yardımıyla internetteki düzensiz veriler toplanarak anlamlı sonuçlar ortaya çıkarılabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, çay ağacı yağı ve çay ağacı yağının kullanıldığı kozmetik ürünlere yönelik kullanıcı yorumları kamuya açık alışveriş yapılabilen bir e-ticaret platformundan elde edilmiş ve yorumlar metin ve web madenciliği yöntemlerinden faydalanılarak incelenmiştir. Yorumlarda en sık geçen kelimeleri belirlemek, bunları kelime bulutları oluşturarak görselleştirmek ve duygu analizi gerçekleştirmek amacıyla RapidMiner yazılımı kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar değerlendirildiğinde hem çay ağacı yağında hem de çay ağacı yağının kullanıldığı kozmetik ürünlerde kullanıcı memnuniyetlerinin benzediği tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca sağlık açısından her iki ürün seçeneğinin de sivilce gibi cilt ile alakalı sorunlarda kullanıldığı görülmüştür.
