摘要
[Objective] This paper builds an automated detection model to effectively identify mis/dis-information from social media, aiming to balance the speed and accuracy of processing massive data. [Methods] The classification model is the mainstream processing technique to detect for mis/dis-information. However, most of them could not extract deep semantic features from the texts. Therefore, we used the single text feature BFID model (BERT False-Information-Detection) as the benchmark model, and proposed two new methods with fused semantic enhancement to detect the mis/dis-information. [Results] We examined the new models with data from Sina Weibo. The accuracy of the model based on fused sentiment feature BFID-SEN (BFID-Sentiment) increased about 1.59 percentage point, while the accuracy of model with fused image feature BFID-IMG (BFID-Image) model improved by 0.78 percentage point. [Limitations] The ability to fuse semantic enhancement is limited due to the small corpus size, sentiment categories and multimodal disinformation training datasets. [Conclusions] The proposed methods are able to more effectively identify false information from social media. © 2023, Chinese Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved.
