Disinformation has long been regarded as a severe social problem, where fake news is one of the most representative issues. What is worse, todays highly developed social media makes fake news widely spread at incredible speed, bringing in substantial harm to various aspects of human life. Yet, the popularity of social media also provides opportunities to better detect fake news. Unlike conventional means which merely focus on either content or user comments, effective collaboration of heterogeneous social media information, including content and context factors of news, users comments and the engagement of social media with users, will hopefully give rise to better detection of fake news. Motivated by the above observations, a novel detection framework, namely graph comment-user advanced learning framework (GCAL) is proposed in this paper. User-comment information is crucial but not well studied in fake news detection. Thus, we model user-comment context through network representation learning based on heterogeneous graph neural network. We conduct experiments on two real-world datasets, which demonstrate that the proposed joint model outperforms 8 state-of-the-art baseline methods for fake news detection (at least 4% in Accuracy, 7% in Recall and 5% in F1). Moreover, the proposed method is also explainable.
Although significant effort has been applied to fact-checking, the prevalence of fake news over social media, which has profound impact on justice, public trust and our society, remains a serious problem. In this work, we focus on propagation-based f
Today social media has become the primary source for news. Via social media platforms, fake news travel at unprecedented speeds, reach global audiences and put users and communities at great risk. Therefore, it is extremely important to detect fake n
Recent years have witnessed the significant damage caused by various types of fake news. Although considerable effort has been applied to address this issue and much progress has been made on detecting fake news, most existing approaches mainly rely
Fake news, false or misleading information presented as news, has a great impact on many aspects of society, such as politics and healthcare. To handle this emerging problem, many fake news detection methods have been proposed, applying Natural Langu
Recently, due to the booming influence of online social networks, detecting fake news is drawing significant attention from both academic communities and general public. In this paper, we consider the existence of confounding variables in the feature
