Description

Internet plays a vital role in our daily lives, we use it for various purposes and benefit from advancements in technology and social media. However, the same platforms which make global information exchange also promote spread of fake news,raising a significant threat. To resist this issue, fact checking has become important, leading to extensive research to identify fake news and deal problems arising with them. Our project’s mission is to find the most effective model for fake news detection. We explore different approaches and models, like BERT, Decision Trees, Logistic Regression, and Ada Boost classification and evaluate their performance by calculating accuracy, precision, recall, and more. We aim to provide valuable insights on this critical fake news issue and show the best performing model among the pool of models.
