Problem Definition: Given the text of a news article, determine whether the main claim made in the article is true, partially true, false, or other (e.g., claims in dispute) and detect the topical domain of the article. This task will run in English and German.

Subtask 3: Multi-class fake news detection of news articles (English) Sub-task A would detect fake news designed as a four-class classification problem. The training data will be released in batches and roughly about 900 articles with the respective label. Given the text of a news article, determine whether the main claim made in the article is true, partially true, false, or other. Our definitions for the categories are as follows:

• False - The main claim made in an article is untrue.

• Partially False - The main claim of an article is a mixture of true and false information. The article contains partially true and partially false information but cannot be considered 100% true. It includes all articles in categories like partially false, partially true, mostly true, miscaptioned, misleading etc., as defined by different fact-checking services.

• True - This rating indicates that the primary elements of the main claim are demonstrably true.

• Other- An article that cannot be categorised as true, false, or partially false due to lack of evidence about its claims. This category includes articles in dispute and unproven articles.

Input Data

The data will be provided in the format of Id, title, text, rating, the domain; the description of the columns is as follows:

• ID- Unique identifier of the news article
• Title- Title of the news article
• text- Text mentioned inside the news article
• our rating - class of the news article as false, partially false, true, other

Output data format

• public_id- Unique identifier of the news article
• predicted_rating- predicted class

Sample File

public_id, predicted_rating
1, false
2, true

Sample file

public_id, predicted_domain
1, health
2, crime

Additional data for Training

To train your model, the participant can use additional data with a similar format; some datasets are available over the web. We don't provide the background truth for those datasets. For testing, we will not use any articles from other datasets. Some of the possible sources:

• Fakenews Classification Datasets
• Fake News Detection Challenge KDD 2020
• FakeNewsNet

IMPORTANT!

1. We have used the data from 2010 to 2021, and the content of fake news is mixed up with several topics like elections, COVID-19 etc.

Evaluation Metrics

This task is evaluated as a classification task. We will use the F1-macro measure for the ranking of teams. There is a limit of 5 runs (total and not per day), and only one person from a team is allowed to submit runs.

Baseline: For this task, we have created a baseline system. The baseline system can be found at https://zenodo.org/record/6362498

Submission Link: Coming soon

Dataset

This dataset was created by Muna

Contents

We designed a larger and more generic Word Embedding over Linguistic Features for Fake News Detection (WELFake) dataset of 72,134 news articles with 35,028 real and 37,106 fake news. For this, we merged four popular news datasets (i.e. Kaggle, McIntire, Reuters, BuzzFeed Political) to prevent over-fitting of classifiers and to provide more text data for better ML training.

Dataset contains four columns: Serial number (starting from 0); Title (about the text news heading); Text (about the news content); and Label (0 = fake and 1 = real).

There are 78098 data entries in csv file out of which only 72134 entries are accessed as per the data frame.

This dataset is a part of our ongoing research on "Fake News Prediction on Social Media Website" as a doctoral degree program of Mr. Pawan Kumar Verma and is partially supported by the ARTICONF project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.

Adapted from: [https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/csmalarkodi/covid-fake-news-dataset].

It is trained on data of around 45,000 news articles with a mix of real and fake news articles. The dataset is provided by the University of Victoria.

https://www.googleapis.com/download/storage/v1/b/kaggle-user-content/o/inbox%2F21948533%2Fa9c02011dc538fde2c967d56bfdb4778%2Fsubjects.png?generation=1735462720561554&alt=media" alt="distribution of topics">

The dataset contains two types of articles fake and real News. This dataset was collected from realworld sources; the truthful articles were obtained by crawling articles from Reuters.com (News website). As for the fake news articles, they were collected from different sources. The fake news articles were collected from unreliable websites that were flagged by Politifact (a fact-checking organization in the USA) and Wikipedia. The dataset contains different types of articles on different topics, however, the majority of articles focus on political and World news topics.

The dataset consists of two CSV files. The first file named “True.csv” contains more than 12,600 articles from reuter.com. The second file named “Fake.csv” contains more than 12,600 articles from different fake news outlet resources. Each article contains the following information: article title, text, type and the date the article was published on. To match the fake news data collected for kaggle.com, we focused mostly on collecting articles from 2016 to 2017. The data collected were cleaned and processed, however, the punctuations and mistakes that existed in the fake news were kept in the text.

The following table gives a breakdown of the categories and number of articles per category.

The BDG2 open data set consists of 3,053 energy meters from 1,636 non-residential buildings with a range of two full years (2016 and 2017) at an hourly frequency (17,544 measurements per meter resulting in approximately 53.6 million measurements). These meters are collected from 19 sites across North America and Europe, and they measure electrical, heating and cooling water, steam, and solar energy as well as water and irrigation meters. Part of these data was used in the Great Energy Predictor III (GEPIII) competition hosted by the ASHRAE organization in October-December 2019. This subset includes data from 2,380 meters from 1,448 buildings that were used in the GEPIII, a machine learning competition for long-term prediction with an application to measurement and verification. This paper describes the process of data collection, cleaning, and convergence of time-series meter data, the meta-data about the buildings, and complementary weather data. This data set can be used for further prediction benchmarking and prototyping as well as anomaly detection, energy analysis, and building type classification.
