As misinformation spreads rapidly, automated detection systems are essential to mitigate its impact. However, most existing methods rely solely on textual analysis, limiting their effectiveness. The challenge is further compounded by the lack of a large-scale, multimodal dataset for Bangla fake news detection, as existing datasets are either small or unimodal. To address this, we introduce <strong>MultiBanFakeDetect</strong>, a novel multimodal dataset integrating both textual and visual information. This dataset comprises manually curated real and fake news samples from various online sources. Additionally, we propose <strong>MultiFusionFake</strong>, a hybrid multimodal fake news detection framework that fuses text and image modalities using an Early Fusion approach while also comparing Late and Intermediate fusion techniques. Our experiments show that MultiFusionFake, combining DenseNet-169 and mBERT, achieves 79.69% accuracy, outperforming the text-only mBERT model’s 73.13%, reflecting a 6.56 percentage point improvement. These results underscore the advantages of multimodal over unimodal methods. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study on multimodal fake news detection in the under-resourced Bangla context, offering a promising approach to combating online misinformation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100699,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Management Data Insights","volume":"5 2","pages":"Article 100347"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144307293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In text-based information, content extraction can be used to determine the meaning and intent of the message. Therefore, this research aims to develop a novel approach for entity detection in Indonesian-language fake news texts by applying BiLSTM-CRF, BiGRU, and BERT models. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of Part-of-Speech (PoS) tagging before processing words for entity detection. Words tagged as Noun (NN) and Proper Noun (NNP) are transformed into entity labels such as ORG for organizations, PER for people, and LOC for locations. Meanwhile, words labeled as Verb (VB) are converted into the ACT entity to represent actions. Evaluations were conducted by integrating PoS tagging with entity detection using the BiLSTM-CRF model, which achieved an F1-Score of 81.26%. The BiGRU-based model achieved an F1-Score of 79.46%, while the BERT-based model achieved the highest F1-Score of 87.38%. These results demonstrate that the BERT model, when combined with PoS tagging, provides the best performance and can effectively be used to detect entities in fake news. The entity detection process was further applied to identify fake news during the 2024 Indonesian presidential and vice-presidential election period. By counting the number of mentions of each candidate and their running mate labeled as PER entities, it has result the Prabowo Subianto–Gibran Rakabuming Raka pair appeared in 49 fake news articles.

In this study, we propose a novel approach, Adapt-BERT (ABERT), for the detection of both human and artificial intelligence (AI)-generated fake news. ABERT includes parameter-efficient adapter that enables efficient detection. By freezing the pre-trained BERT network and incorporating lightweight adapter, ABERT achieves comparable performance to fully fine-tuned BERT while reducing the number of trainable parameters by approximately 67.7%. ABERT strikes a balance between performance and computational efficiency, offering a scalable solution to combat the dissemination of fake news in digital media.

The research assesses the available data's content, formats, and licensing through a population-based analysis of all datasets labeled under the “industry” category across the 17 Spanish autonomous communities. The findings reveal a fragmented and inconsistent landscape: of over 46,000 datasets published by autonomous community governments, only 532 were initially labeled as industry-related, and after a rigorous selection process—removing duplicates, outdated records, and mislabeling entries—only 316 were deemed valid. The study highlights a predominance of non-reusable formats such as HTML and a lack of standardisation in the categorization of information. While most datasets use open licenses (mainly Creative Commons BY), the variability in download options and formats limits their automated processing and reuse. These results underscore the need for standardization criteria, improved data quality, and strategic alignment of OGD initiatives with sectoral priorities such as industrial competitiveness and sustainability.
