Detecting Fake News using Machine Learning Models
Developed and implemented machine learning models, (Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Logistic Regression), to detect fake news utilizing the ISOT dataset.
Preprocessed and analyzed data using Python libraries such as Pandas, NumPy, and scikit-learn, achieving an accuracy rate of 99.3% with SVM. Conducted model evaluation through performance metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score.
Employed Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques for feature extraction, optimizing model performance by leveraging Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) scoring.
