Early detection of online public opinion rumors for cross-event generalization

Results indicate that the proposed SCSNet method is more reliable for unseen-event generalization and sparse early-propagation judgment, and shows consistent performance improvement from 10 to 30 min across repeated runs.

An interpretable multi-scale temporal-structural feature framework for early rumor detection on social media

This work introduces MSTRD, an explainable multi-scale temporal-structural feature framework for rumor detection on social media, and finds that temporal features are the most informative feature group, with a 2.4%-point accuracy drop when removed.

Hybrid Deep Learning Model for Rumor Detection in Social Media

This paper presents a hybrid deep learning approach for rumor detection in social media that combines transformer-based text representation with graph-based modeling of information propagation. The proposed method integrates a Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers model for extracting semantic feature...
