Fake engagement is one of the significant problems in Online Social Networks (OSNs) which is used to increase the popularity of an account in an inorganic manner. The detection of fake engagement is crucial because it leads to loss of money for businesses, wrong audience targeting in advertising, wrong product predicti…
Framework detects fake news using weak social signals from multiple sources.
Nowadays, Internet is a primary source of attaining health information. Massive fake health news which is spreading over the Internet, has become a severe threat to public health. Numerous studies and research works have been done in fake news detection domain, however, few of them are designed to cope with the challen…
The proliferation of fake news on social media has opened up new directions of research for timely identification and containment of fake news, and mitigation of its widespread impact on public opinion. While much of the earlier research was focused on identification of fake news based on its contents or by exploiting …
Data poisoning attacks can manipulate recommender systems to recommend target items.
This note provides an easy construction of fake octagons.
Classifies fake surfaces up to complexity 5.
New framework investigates how fake features affect model generalization.
On the one hand, nowadays, fake news articles are easily propagated through various online media platforms and have become a grand threat to the trustworthiness of information. On the other hand, our understanding of the language of fake news is still minimal. Incorporating hierarchical discourse-level structure of fak…
Paper proves contractible fake surfaces up to complexity 6 are deformable.
MALCOM generates fake comments to fool fake news detectors.
Paper proposes HGAT for detecting fake news on HIN.
Study detects fake news in Brazilian Portuguese using machine learning.
Improves estimation under model misspecification with fake features.
Paper explores different models for fake news detection.
We apply the recent results of Galkin et al. [GKMS15] to study some geometrical features of Keum's fake projective planes. Among other things, we show that the bicanonical map of Keum's fake projective planes is always an embedding. Moreover, we construct a nonstandard exceptional collection on the unique fake projecti…
In recent years, due to the booming development of online social networks, fake news for various commercial and political purposes has been appearing in large numbers and widespread in the online world. With deceptive words, online social network users can get infected by these online fake news easily, which has brough…
We apply the lifting theorem of Searle and the second author to put metrics of almost nonnegative curvature on the fake RP^{6}s of Hirsch and Milnor and on the analogous fake RP^{14}s.
In the present article, we provide examples of fake quadrics, that is, minimal complex surfaces of general type with the same numerical invariants as the smooth quadric in $\PP ^3$ which are quotients of the bidisc by an irreducible lattice of automorphisms. Moreover, we list classes of arithmetic lattices over a real …
Recently, due to the booming influence of online social networks, detecting fake news is drawing significant attention from both academic communities and general public. In this paper, we consider the existence of confounding variables in the features of fake news and use Propensity Score Matching (PSM) to select gener…
A fake quadric is a smooth projective surface that has the same rational cohomology as a smooth quadric surface but is not biholomorphic to one. We provide an explicit classification of all irreducible fake quadrics according to the commensurability class of their fundamental group. To accomplish this task, we develop …
RealStats detects fake images rigorously, combining multiple detectors for robustness.
We study quotients of the -fold product of the upper half plane by irreducible and torsion-free lattices with the same Betti numbers as the -fold product of projective lines. Such varieties are called fake products of projective lines…
SAFE detects fake news by analyzing text and image similarities.
In this paper we show strategies to easily identify fake samples generated with the Generative Adversarial Network framework. One strategy is based on the statistical analysis and comparison of raw pixel values and features extracted from them. The other strategy learns formal specifications from the real data and show…
New algebraic fundamental groups identified for fake projective planes.
Operationalizes engagement as human behavior, linking theory and data.
Social media are nowadays one of the main news sources for millions of people around the globe due to their low cost, easy access and rapid dissemination. This however comes at the cost of dubious trustworthiness and significant risk of exposure to 'fake news', intentionally written to mislead the readers. Automaticall…
GCAN detects fake news on social media with explanations.
While the purpose of most fake news is misinformation and political propaganda, our team sees it as a new type of myth that is created by people in the age of internet identities and artificial intelligence. Seeking insights on the fear and desire hidden underneath these modified or generated stories, we use machine le…
We give a criterion for a projective surface to become a quotient of a fake projective plane. We also give a detailed information on the elliptic fibration of a -elliptic surface that is the minimal resolution of a quotient of a fake projective plane. As a consequence, we give a classification of -h…
Study tackles ranking fraud in online platforms by learning robust rankings.
A fake wedge is a diagram of spaces K <- A -> C whose double mapping cylinder is contractible. The terminology stems from the special case A = K v C with maps given by the projections. In this paper, we study the homotopy type of the moduli space D(K,C) of fake wedges on K and C. We formulate two conjectures concerning…
Advances in computer vision have brought us to the point where we have the ability to synthesise realistic fake content. Such approaches are seen as a source of disinformation and mistrust, and pose serious concerns to governments around the world. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) demonstrate encouraging results wh…
Deep learning uses alphabet frequencies to accurately classify fake news.
Can machine learning models for recommendation be easily fooled? While the question has been answered for hand-engineered fake user profiles, it has not been explored for machine learned adversarial attacks. This paper attempts to close this gap. We propose a framework for generating fake user profiles which, when inco…
We propose and demonstrate the use of a model-assisted generative adversarial network (GAN) to produce fake images that accurately match true images through the variation of the parameters of the model that describes the features of the images. The generator learns the model parameter values that produce fake images th…

This article presents a preliminary approach towards characterizing political fake news on Twitter through the analysis of their meta-data. In particular, we focus on more than 1.5M tweets collected on the day of the election of Donald Trump as 45th president of the United States of America. We use the meta-data embedd…
