Coordinated inauthentic behavior is used as a tool on social media to shape public opinion by elevating or suppressing topics using systematic engagements -- e.g. through *likes* or similar reactions. In an honest world, reactions may be…
In this work, the integration of two machine learning approaches, namely domain adaptation and explainable AI, is proposed to address these two issues of generalized detection and explainability. Firstly the Domain Adversarial Neural…
Preventing the spread of misinformation is challenging. The detection of misleading content presents a significant hurdle due to its extreme linguistic and domain variability. Content-based models have managed to identify deceptive language…
The rapid evolution of social media has generated an overwhelming volume of user-generated content, conveying implicit opinions and contributing to the spread of misinformation. The method aims to enhance the detection of stance where…
Multimodal fake news detection has garnered significant attention due to its profound implications for social security. While existing approaches have contributed to understanding cross-modal consistency, they often fail to leverage…
Sentiment analysis has been emerging recently as one of the major natural language processing (NLP) tasks in many applications. Especially, as social media channels (e.g. social networks or forums) have become significant sources for brands…
Fake news detection is an important task for increasing the credibility of information on the media since fake news is constantly spreading on social media every day and it is a very serious concern in our society. Fake news is usually…
Fake news detection is an important and challenging task for defending online information integrity. Existing state-of-the-art approaches typically extract news semantic clues, such as writing patterns that include emotional words,…
The political stance prediction for news articles has been widely studied to mitigate the echo chamber effect -- people fall into their thoughts and reinforce their pre-existing beliefs. The previous works for the political stance problem…
Retrieving information from an online search engine, is the first and most important step in many data mining tasks. Most of the search engines currently available on the web, including all social media platforms, are black-boxes (a.k.a…
The majority of existing methods for fake news detection universally focus on learning and fusing various features for detection. However, the learning of various features is independent, which leads to a lack of cross-interaction fusion…
The global spread of misinformation and concerns about content trustworthiness have driven the development of automated fact-checking systems. Since false information often exploits social media dynamics such as "likes" and user networks to…
The proliferation of social media has led to information overload and increased interest in opinion mining. We propose "Question-Answering Network Analysis" (QANA), a novel opinion mining framework that utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs)…
The rapid spread of fake news is a serious problem calling for AI solutions. We employ a deep learning based automated detector through a three level hierarchical attention network (3HAN) for fast, accurate detection of fake news. 3HAN has…
Bearing fault diagnosis is of great importance to decrease the damage risk of rotating machines and further improve economic profits. Recently, machine learning, represented by deep learning, has made great progress in bearing fault…
Social media for news consumption is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, its low cost, easy access, and rapid dissemination of information lead people to seek out and consume news from social media. On the other hand, it enables the wide…
In this system paper we present our contribution to the Constraint 2021 COVID-19 Fake News Detection Shared Task, which poses the challenge of classifying COVID-19 related social media posts as either fake or real. In our system, we address…
While image understanding on recognition-level has achieved remarkable advancements, reliable visual scene understanding requires comprehensive image understanding on recognition-level but also cognition-level, which calls for exploiting…
The widespread dissemination of fake news on social media poses significant risks, necessitating timely and accurate detection. However, existing methods struggle with unseen news due to their reliance on training data from past events and…
In recommendation-driven online media, creators increasingly suffer from semantic mutation, where malicious secondary edits preserve visual fidelity while altering the intended meaning. Detecting these mutations requires modeling a…
