In most of the existing and useful methods consists of news content and context level features using unidirectional pre-trained word embedding models (such as GloVe, TF-IDF, word2Vec, etc.) There is a large scope to use bidirectional pre-trained word embedding models having powerful feature extraction capability. Approaches related to fake news detection show in Fig. Furthermore, propagation-based methodologies deals with the relations of significant social media posts to guide the learning of validity scores by propagating credibility values between users, posts, and news. In these approaches, instance-based methodologies deals with the behaviour of the user towards any social media post to induce the integrity of unique news stories. Social context-based approaches deals with the latent information between the user and news article.Social engagements (the semantic relationship between news articles and user) can be used as a significant feature for fake news detection. Thus, we also need to investigate the engagement of fake news articles with users.

Thus, it is difficult to detect fake news more accurately by using only news content-based features.

In these learnings, style-based methodologies are helpful to capture the writing style of manipulators using linguistic features for identifying fake articles.

Furthermore, fake news publishers regularly have malignant plans to spread mutilated and deluding, requiring specific composition styles to interest and convince a wide extent of consumers that are not present in true news stories. In these techniques, our main focus is to extract several features in fake news article related to both information as well as the writing style. News content-based approaches deals with different writing style of published news articles. Existing learnings for fake news detection can be generally categorized as (i) News Content-based learning and (ii) Social Context-based learning. The former theories are valuable in guiding research on fake news detection using different classification models. Hoax is also known as with similar names like prank or jape.Įxisting approaches for fake news detectionĭetection of fake news is challenging as it is intentionally written to falsify information. Currently, it has been increasing at an alarming rate. Hoax: A hoax is a falsehood deliberately fabricated to masquerade as the truth. It might end up being a socially dangerous phenomenon in any human culture. It might imply to an occurrence, article, and any social issue of open public concern.

Rumor: A rumour is an unverified claim about any event, transmitting from individual to individual in the society. In the research context, related synonyms (keywords) often linked with fake news: Classification results demonstrate that our proposed model (FakeBERT) outperforms the existing models with an accuracy of 98.90%. Such a combination is useful to handle ambiguity, which is the greatest challenge to natural language understanding. In this paper, we propose a BERT-based (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) deep learning approach (FakeBERT) by combining different parallel blocks of the single-layer deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) having different kernel sizes and filters with the BERT. Therefore, a bidirectional training approach is a priority for modelling the relevant information of fake news that is capable of improving the classification performance with the ability to capture semantic and long-distance dependencies in sentences. In recent researches, many useful methods for fake news detection employ sequential neural networks to encode news content and social context-level information where the text sequence was analyzed in a unidirectional way. Social media platforms allow us to consume news much faster, with less restricted editing results in the spread of fake news at an incredible pace and scale. In the modern era of computing, the news ecosystem has transformed from old traditional print media to social media outlets.
