A System for Fake News Detection by using Supervised Learning Model for Social Media Contents

The proliferation of fake news across online media platforms poses significant challenges to public trust,societal harmony,and information integrity.Many of the things that people read online, particularly on social media, seem true, but they are frequently not. Fake news is defined as news, articles, or hoaxes that are purposefully created to mislead or deceive readers..This study develops a machine learning-based system for detecting fake news on digital platforms. Utilizing algorithms such as K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting and Support Vector Machines (SVM), the system processes textual data using natural language processing (NLP) techniques like term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) and bag-of- words for feature extraction.The performance of each algorithm is evaluated using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score to identify the most effective model. By identifying the most effective machine learning model, this research aims to provide a scalable solution that can help reduce misinformation and enhance the credibility of online information.By distinguishing the best A1 model,this expectation expects to give a versatile arrangement that can assist with lessening deception and improve the believability of online data.
