Abstract

The topic of hoax news detection on social media has recently pulled in enormous consideration. Social media not taking any credibility for the news being spread in it makes it more difficult to contain the hoax news. The essential counter measure of comparing websites against a list of labeled hoax news sources is inflexible, and so a machine learning approach is desirable. Our project aims to use Neural Networks to detect hoax news directly, based on the text content of news articles. The model concentrates on discovering hoax news origins, based on the many articles originating from it. When a source is spotted as a maker of hoax news, we can predict with high reliability that other articles from that will similarly be hoax news. Focusing on sources augments our article mis categorization resilience, since we at that point have various facts focuses originating from each source.
