Comparative Analysis of Supervised Learning Methods for Fake News DetectionSupervisor : Dr. Alan Godfrey Abstract :
Fake news detection is a challenging problem, and there are many different artificial intelligence approaches developed to detect fake news. However, it is still unclear which approach is better and where further research should lead. To accomplish this goal, we conducted this study to compare the existing supervised learning methods for classifying fake news. We conducted our study on ‘Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire’ dataset with 12.8K columns. We implemented NLP technique TF-IDF and evaluated the performance of seven machine learning algorithms i.e., Decision Tree, Random Forest, Naïve Bayes, XGBoost, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and LinearSVC and six deep learning methods namely Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Recurrent Neural Network, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) and Bi-Directional LSTM. Our results reveal that machine learning algorithms like Random Forest, Logistic Regression and SVM and deep learning methods like LSTM and GRU are the most efficient for fake news detection task, whereas Decision Tree, LinearSVC, Artificial Neural Network, Recurrent Neural Network are least efficient. We have also presented evaluation of our implementation and model performance. Finally, we discussed how the fake news detection problem can be approached in future for better results.
