Main Abstract:
The increasing popularity of social media promotes the proliferation of fake news. With the development of multimedia technology, fake news attempts to utilize multimedia contents with images or videos to attract and mislead readers for rapid dissemination, which makes visual contents an important part of fake news. Fake-news images, images attached in fake news posts,include not only fake images which are maliciously tampered but also real images which are wrongly used to represent irrelevant events. Hence, how to fully exploit the inherent characteristics of fake-news images is an important but challenging problem for fake news detection. In the real world, fake-news images may have significantly different characteristics from real-news images at both physical and semantic levels, which can be clearly reflected in the frequency and pixel domain, respectively. Therefore, we propose a novel framework Multi-domain Visual Neural Network (MVNN) to fuse the visual information of frequency and pixel domains for detecting fake news. Specifically, we design a CNN-based network to automatically capture the complex patterns of fake-news images in the frequency domain; and utilize a multi-branch CNN-RNN model to extract visual features from different semantic levels in the pixel domain. An attention mechanism is utilized to fuse the feature representations of frequency and pixel domains dynamically. Extensive experiments conducted on a real-world dataset demonstrate that MVNN outperforms existing methods with at least 9.2 in accuracy, and can help improve the performance of multimodal fake news detection by over 5.2 .

[1]: In recent times, fake news and misinformation have had a disruptive and adverse impact on our lives. Given the prominence of microblogging networks as a source of news for most individuals, fake news now spreads at a faster pace and has a more profound impact than ever before. This makes detection of fake news an extremely important challenge. Fake news articles, just like genuine news articles, leverage multimedia content to manipulate user opinions but spread misinformation. A shortcoming of the current approaches for the detection of fake news is their inability to learn a shared representation of multimodal (textual + visual) information. We propose an end-to-end network, Multimodal Variational Autoencoder (MVAE), which uses a bimodal variational autoencoder coupled with a binary classifier for the task of fake news detection. The model consists of three main components, an encoder, a decoder and a fake news detector module. The variational autoencoder is capable of learning probabilistic latent variable models by optimizing a bound on the marginal likelihood of the observed data. The fake news detector then utilizes the multimodal representations obtained from the bimodal variational autoencoder to classify posts as fake or not. We conduct extensive experiments on two standard fake news datasets collected from popular microblogging websites: Weibo and Twitter. The experimental results show that across the two datasets, on average our model outperforms state-of-the-art methods by margins as large as 6 in accuracy and 5 in F1 scores.

[2]: Microblogs have become popular media for news propagation in recent years. Meanwhile, numerous rumors and fake news also bloom and spread wildly on the open social media platforms. Without verification, they could seriously jeopardize the credibility of microblogs. We observe that an increasing number of users are using images and videos to post news in addition to texts. Tweets or microblogs are commonly composed of text, image and social context. In this paper, we propose a novel Recurrent Neural Network with an attention mechanism (att-RNN) to fuse multimodal features for effective rumor detection. In this end-to-end network, image features are incorporated into the joint features of text and social context, which are obtained with an LSTM (Long-Short Term Memory) network, to produce a reliable fused classification. The neural attention from the outputs of the LSTM is utilized when fusing with the visual features. Extensive experiments are conducted on two multimedia rumor datasets collected from Weibo and Twitter. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed end-to-end att-RNN in detecting rumors with multimodal contents.

[3]: In this work we investigate the effect of the convolutional network depth on its accuracy in the large-scale image recognition setting. Our main contribution is a thorough evaluation of networks of increasing depth using an architecture with very small (3x3) convolution filters, which shows that a significant improvement on the prior-art configurations can be achieved by pushing the depth to 16-19 weight layers. These findings were the basis of our ImageNet Challenge 2014 submission, where our team secured the first and the second places in the localisation and classification tracks respectively. We also show that our representations generalise well to other datasets, where they achieve state-of-the-art results. We have made our two best-performing ConvNet models publicly available to facilitate further research on the use of deep visual representations in computer vision.

[4]: As news reading on social media becomes more and more popular, fake news becomes a major issue concerning the public and government. The fake news can take advantage of multimedia content to mislead readers and get dissemination, which can cause negative effects or even manipulate the public events. One of the unique challenges for fake news detection on social media is how to identify fake news on newly emerged events. Unfortunately, most of the existing approaches can hardly handle this challenge, since they tend to learn event-specific features that can not be transferred to unseen events. In order to address this issue, we propose an end-to-end framework named Event Adversarial Neural Network (EANN), which can derive event-invariant features and thus benefit the detection of fake news on newly arrived events. It consists of three main components: the multi-modal feature extractor, the fake news detector, and the event discriminator. The multi-modal feature extractor is responsible for extracting the textual and visual features from posts. It cooperates with the fake news detector to learn the discriminable representation for the detection of fake news. The role of event discriminator is to remove the event-specific features and keep shared features among events. Extensive experiments are conducted on multimedia datasets collected from Weibo and Twitter. The experimental results show our proposed EANN model can outperform the state-of-the-art methods, and learn transferable feature representations.
Inspired by the power of CNN, most existing works based on multimedia contents use a pre-trained deep CNN like VGG19 [3] to obtain general visual representations and fuse them with text information. Specifically, [2] first incorporates multimodal contents on social networks via deep neural networks to solve fake news detection problem; [4] proposes an end-to-end event adversarial neural network to detect newly-emerged fake news events based on multi-modal features; [1] presents a novel approach to learn a shared representation of multimodal information for fake news detection. However, these works focus on how to fuse the information of different modalities, ignoring effectively modeling visual contents. These visual features they adopted are too general to reflect the intrinsic characteristics of fake-news images due to the lack of task-relevant information, which degrades the performance of visual contents in fake news detection.
