A Comprehensive Low and High-level Feature Analysis for Early Rumor Detection on Twitter

arXiv:1711.00726v3 Announce Type: replace-cross
Abstract: Recent work have done a good job in modeling rumors and detecting them over microblog streams. However, the performance of their automatic approaches are not relatively high when looking early in the diffusion. A first intuition is that, at early stage, most of the aggregated rumor features (e.g., propagation features) are not mature and distinctive enough. The objective of rumor debunking in microblogs, however, are to detect these misinformation as early as possible. In this …
