摘要

The fake news running rampant in this modern day, it’s vital to catch it to dismiss the myth. Traditional analytics like Bag of Words (BoW) and TF-IDF could not capture any relationship that exists between words and hence is able to extract minimal context only. Deep learning methods such as BERT and Word2Vec can comprehend deeper context now, but in so doing, it requires word-level context along with a sequence dependency to be formed by models. The improved fake news detection by applying a BERT + LSTM framework on the LIAR dataset, giving detailed accuracy ratings of political statements. The benchmark of BERT + LSTM model against the previously used approaches such as BoW, Word2Vec, and GloVe and have shown that BERT + LSTM can capture nuances in word and sequence relationships. The results show that proposed method achieves higher accuracy of 62.9, precision of 63.94, recall of 91.29, and F1-scores of 75.69 than the traditional methods.
