A knowledge-Aware NLP-Driven conversational model to detect deceptive contents on social media posts

Abstract

The widespread dissemination of deceptive content on social media presents a substantial challenge to preserving authenticity and trust. The epidemic growth of false news is due to the greater use of social media to transmit news, rather than conventional mass media such as newspapers, magazines, radio, and television. Humans' incapacity to differentiate among true and false facts exposes fake news as a threat to logical truth, democracy, journalism, and government credibility. Using combination of advanced methodologies, Deep learning (DL) methods, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) approaches, researchers and technology developers attempt to make robust systems proficient in discerning the subtle nuances that betray deceptive intent. Analysing conversational linguistic patterns of misleading data, these techniques’ purpose to progress the resilience of social platforms against the spread of deceptive content, eventually contributing to an additional informed and trustworthy online platform. This paper proposed a Knowledge-Aware NLP-Driven AlBiruni Earth Radius Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning Tool for Enhanced Deceptive Content Detection (BER-DLEDCD) algorithm on Social Media. The purpose of the BER-DLEDCD system is to identify and classify the existence of deceptive content utilizing NLP with optimal DL model. In the BER-DLEDCD technique, data pre-processing takes place to change the input data into compatible format. Furthermore, the BER-DLEDCD approach applies hybrid DL technique encompassing Convolutional Neural Network with Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) methodology for deceptive content detection. Moreover, the BER approach has been deployed to boost hyperparameter choice of the CNN-LSTM technique which leads to enhanced detection performance. The simulation outcome of the BER-DLEDCD system has been examined employing benchmark database. The extensive outcomes stated the BER-DLEDCD system achieved excellent performance with the accuracy of 94 %, 94.83 % precision, 94.30 % F-score with other recent approaches.
