Multimodal Fake News Detection

High Level Description

This master's thesis aims to develop a robust multimodal fake news detection system capable of effectively identifying misinformation across different social media platforms. The research will focus on novel deep learning architectures for multimodal fusion and explore techniques for effective knowledge transfer between platforms, addressing the evolving challenge of online misinformation.

Project Description

The project will involve creating a deep learning model that can process and analyze multiple inputs such as text and images from social media platforms.

The research will focus on developing novel architectures for multimodal fusion and exploring techniques for effective knowledge transfer between platforms. Including data collection, preprocessing pipelines. Compare studies on pre-existing work and implementations to gather knowledge of the domain.
