Transductive – Long Short-Term Memory Network for the Fake News Detection

Recently, fake news and rumors are distributing majorly and rapidly in all over world. That circumstance causes the production and propagation of incorrect news articles. As well as mis data and fake news are maximized through user without correct verification. In this manuscript, proposed a Transductive - Long Short-Term Memory (T-LSTM) method for detecting fake news. The Buzzfeed and ISOT datasets are used in this manuscript for fake news detection and it is pre-processed by tokenization, removal of stop word and stemming. Then, the reduction of feature is performed by using Probability Principal Component Analysis (PPCA) and it is classified by using T-LSTM method. The proposed T-LSTM method attained accuracy 96.51 %, precision 94.64 %, recall 92.33 % and f1-score 93.57% on Buzzfeed dataset. The proposed T-LSTM method attained accuracy 98.43%, precision 97.76%, recall 97.02% and f1-score 97.35% on ISOT dataset. The proposed T-LSTM method performed well than other existing methods like LSTM -Levy Flight (LSTM-LF) and OptNet.
