• Abstract: This paper reviews and summarizes the research results on fact-based fake news from the perspectives of tasks and problems, algorithm strategies, and datasets. First, the paper systematically explains the task definition and core problems of fact-based fake news detection. Second, the paper summarizes the existing detection methods based on the algorithm principles. Third, the paper analyzes the classic and newly proposed datasets in the field, and summarizes the experimental results on each dataset. Finally, the paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of existing methods, proposes several challenges that methods in this field may face, and looks forward to the next stage of research. It is hoped that this paper will provide reference for subsequent work in the field.

  Literature review tables are essential for summarizing and comparing collections of scientific papers. We explore the task of generating tables that best fulfill a user's informational needs given a collection of scientific papers. Our contributions focus on three key challenges encountered in real-world use: (i) User prompts are often under-specified; (ii) Retrieved candidate papers frequently contain irrelevant content; and (iii) Task evaluation should move beyond shallow text similarity techniques.

  Graph out-of-distribution (GOOD) detection focuses on identifying graph data that deviates from the distribution seen during training. We categorize existing methods into four types: enhancement-based, reconstruction-based, information propagation-based, and classification-based approaches. We discuss practical applications and theoretical foundations, highlighting the unique challenges posed by graph data.

• Algorithmic Fairness Datasets: the Story so Far [68.45921483094705]
  Data-driven algorithms are studied in diverse domains to support critical decisions, directly impacting people's well-being. A growing community of researchers has been investigating the equity of existing algorithms and proposing novel ones, advancing the understanding of risks and opportunities of automated decision-making for historically disadvantaged populations. Progress in fair Machine Learning hinges on data, which can be appropriately used only if adequately documented. Unfortunately, the algorithmic fairness community suffers from a collective data documentation debt caused by a lack of information on specific resources (opacity) and scatteredness of available information (sparsity)

• A Systematic Review on the Detection of Fake News Articles [0.0]
  It has been argued that fake news and the spread of false information pose a threat to societies throughout the world. To combat this threat, a number of Natural Language Processing (NLP) approaches have been developed. This paper aims to delineate the approaches for fake news detection that are most performant, identify limitations with existing approaches, and suggest ways these can be mitigated.

  This paper introduces the Ongoing Event Detection (OED) task. The goal is to detect ongoing event mentions only, as opposed to historical, future, hypothetical, or other forms or events that are neither fresh nor current. Any application that needs to extract structured information about ongoing events from unstructured texts can take advantage of an OED system.
