Enhancing information integrity on social media: a deep learning approach to fake news classification using LSTM and GloVe
Bijoy Kar et al.
What the paper says
With the growth of digital platforms, it has become crucial to identify fake news early to alert and protect individuals from its harmful effects. To deal with this problem, detecting fake news and understanding how it spreads are important for users on social media platforms. This work uses deep learning and advanced natural language processing (NLP) methods to classify real and fake news. The suggested model employs a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network in combination with global vectors for word representations (GloVe) for text vectorisation and employs tokenisation for feature extraction to enhance its performance. This approach yields remarkable outcomes, attaining an accuracy rate of 98.15%. This study provides an efficient method for identifying fake news, reducing the spread of false information, and promoting informed decisions for users on social media platforms.
