- Abstract: Many people use social networking services (SNSs) to easily access various
news. There are numerous ways to obtain and share ``fake news,'' which are news
carrying false information. To address fake news, several studies have been
conducted for detecting fake news by using SNS-extracted features. In this
study, we attempt to use temporal features generated from SNS posts by using a
point process algorithm to identify fake news from real news. Temporal features
in fake news detection have the advantage of robustness over existing features
because it has minimal dependence on fake news propagators. Further, we propose
a novel multi-modal attention-based method, which includes linguistic and user
features alongside temporal features, for detecting fake news from SNS posts.
Results obtained from three public datasets indicate that the proposed model
achieves better performance compared to existing methods and demonstrate the
effectiveness of temporal features for fake news detection.

We study the interplay between machine-(paraphrased) real news, machine-generated fake news, human-written fake news, and human-written real news.
Our experiments reveal an interesting pattern that detectors trained exclusively on human-written articles can indeed perform well at detecting machine-generated fake news, but not vice versa.

Social media has greatly enabled people to participate in online activities at an unprecedented rate.
This unrestricted access also exacerbates the spread of misinformation and fake news online which might cause confusion and chaos unless being detected early for its mitigation.
We jointly leverage the limited amount of clean data along with weak signals from social engagements to train deep neural networks in a meta-learning framework to estimate the quality of different weak instances.
Experiments on realworld datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework outperforms state-of-the-art baselines for early detection of fake news without using any user engagements at prediction time.
