KGFakeNet: A Knowledge Graph-Enhanced Model for Fake News Detection

Proceedings of the Workshop on Generative AI and Knowledge Graphs (GenAIK)

The proliferation of fake news on social media has intensified the spread of misinformation, promoting societal biases, hate, and violence. While recent advancements in Generative AI (GenAI), particularly large language models (LLMs), have shown promise, these models often need more structured representation for accurate verification, as they rely on pre-trained data patterns without access to real-time or validated information. This study presents a framework that utilizes Open Information Extractor 6 (OpenIE6) to extract triplet relationships (subject-predicate-object) from statements and justifications to compute the cosine similarity between the Knowledge Graphs (KGs) of the statements and their supporting justification to precisely measure the relevance and alignment between them. This similarity feature is integrated with an attention mechanism over GenAI-generated embeddings to enhance the model’s ability to capture semantic features accurately. In addition, a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) classifier is employed to integrate all features, resulting in a 4% improvement in accuracy and a 5% increase in F1-score over state-of-the-art LLM-based approaches.
