Krzysztof Hryniów
Abstract:This paper addresses the issue of fake news detection, with a particular focus on solutions derived from graph theory. It covers identifying channels, which are sources of fake news, and identifying users spreading false information, considering users deliberately misleading their audience, forming clusters called 'troll farms'. It proposes a solution using graph theory, which includes classifying users based on the social context extracted in graph centrality measures built from user interactions or networks … Show more
