Fuzzy Logic-Based Fake News Detection Example
Suppose we have a news article with the following features that you use to determine whether the article is likely to be fake news:
- Word Count: The total number of words in the article.
- Emotional Tone: A score indicating the article's emotional tone (positive, negative, or neutral).
- Source Reliability: A rating (on a scale of 0 to 1) representing how reliable the news source is.
To describe the qualitative characteristics of the above features and represent its inherently vague or imprecise, we use these linguistic variables:
- Word Count: Low, Medium, High
- Emotional Tone: Negative, Neutral, Positive
- Source Reliability: Low, Medium, High
These membership functions represent each feature.
Consulting a group of experts, they suggest that to classify an article as fake news, we must follow two basic rules:
- If the Word Count is High AND the Emotional Tone is Negative, the article is likely fake.
- If Source Reliability is Low, then the article is likely fake.
The final step is the defuzzification process. It is based on a threshold defined for the problem. In the current process, the crips value resulting from the defuzzification process is more significant than 0.7, and then the article will be considered fake news.
We use a MAX aggregation function and a centroid method (COG) to find this crisp value. The defuzzied value (COG) can be calculated using this formula.
Where:
- µi the degree of membership for the i-th fuzzy set.
- xi is the representative value (often the centroid) of the iii-th fuzzy set.
Using the previous model, calculate whether the following articles could be considered fake. Answer if the article is fake or not!
Demonstrating the calculus is required.
|
Article 1 |
Word Count: 600, Emotional Tone: 0.4, and Source Reliability: 0.6 |
Fuzzification Process: Participants demonstrate the calculation to infer the fuzzy value through the crisp one’s existence in the problem formulation.
Defuzzification Process: Participants demonstrate the calculation to infer the crisp value through the aggregation and application of the COG function.
Calculations: The calculations do not have any mistakes (wrong calculus).
The calculations are precise (the equations are correctly applied).
Result: The Participants cites if the paper is fake or not!
