Abstract: | Detection of fake news has spurred widespread interests in areas such as healthcare and Internet societies, in order to prevent propagating misleading information for commercial and political purposes. However, efforts to study a general framework for exploiting knowledge, for judging the trustworthiness of given news based on their content, have been limited. Indeed, the existing works rarely consider incorporating knowledge graphs (KGs), which could provide rich structured knowledge for better language understanding.In this work, we propose a deep triple network (DTN) that leverages knowledge graphs to facilitate fake news detection with triple-enhanced explanations. In the DTN, background knowledge graphs, such as open knowledge graphs and extracted graphs from news bases, are applied for both low-level and high-level feature extraction to classify the input news article and provide explanations for the classification.The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by demonstrating abundant convincing comparative experiments. Obtained results show that DTN outperforms conventional fake news detection methods from different aspects, including the provision of factual evidence supporting the decision of fake news detection. |
