Authors: Guoqing Zheng ([email protected]), Yichuan Li ([email protected]), Kai Shu ([email protected])

This repository contains code for fake news detection with Multi-source Weak Social Supervision (MWSS), published at ECML-PKDD 2020 at: Early Detection of Fake News with Multi-source Weak Social Supervision

Model Structure

The structure of the MWSS model:

The training process of MWSS model:

Requirements

torch=1.x

transformers=2.4.0

Prepare dataset

The weak labeled dataset is in the format of:

news	Weak_Label_1	Weak_Label_2	...	Weak_Label_K
Hello this is MWSS readme	1	0	...	1

The clean labeled dataset is in the format of:

News	label
Hello this is MWSS readme	1

Usage

a. train_type is {0:"clean", 1:"noise", 2:"clean+noise"}

b. "--meta_learn" is to set the instance weight for each noise samples.

c. "--multi_head" is to set the weak source count, if you have three different weak source, you should set it to 3.

d. "--group_opt": specific optimizer for group weight. You can choose Adam and SGD.

e. "--gold_ratio": Float gold ratio for the training data. Default is 0 which will use [0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.1] all the gold ratio. For gold ratio 0.02, set it as "--gold_ratio 0.02"

f. "--weak_type": type of weak label.

    1. "none" is the default setting for our paper, where each weak labeled instance will have the number of weak label sources for the model training. 
    2. "flat" will copy the weak labeled instance for number of weak labeling sources, and ignore the difference of weak sources.  
    3. "most_vote", 
    4. "0" for weak_label_1, "1" for weak_label_2 and etc. 
    If you choose other variables except "none", you should change the multi_head to 2 (one for the clean dataset and another one for the weak labeled data).

The log information will stored in

~/ray_results/GoldRatio_{}_GroupNet

You can run the following command to extract the best result which is sorted by the average of accuracy and f1.

export LOG_FILE=~/ray_results/GoldRatio_{}_GroupNet
python read_json.py --file_name $LOG_FILE --save_dir ./output

In the meantime, you can visualize the log text by tensorboard

tensorboard --logdir $LOG_FILE
