Multimodal Fact-Checking with Vision Language Models: A Probing Classifier based Solution with Embedding Strategies (2025.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing fact-checking systems that use text and image information are susceptible to fake news spread by social media platforms. |
| Approach: | They propose a neural probing classifier based on multimodality and embeddings from text and image encoders to represent multimodal content for fact-checking. |
| Outcome: | The proposed classifier outperforms KNN and SVM baselines in leveraging extracted embeddings, highlighting its effectiveness for multimodal fact-checking. |
Cross-Lingual Learning vs. Low-Resource Fine-Tuning: A Case Study with Fact-Checking in Turkish (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Currently, most of the research on misinformation is focused on the English language . however, there is a scarcity of datasets for other languages, including Turkish . |
| Approach: | They propose a dataset that spans multiple domains and incorporates evidence from three Turkish fact-checking organizations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset has the potential to advance research in the Turkish language. |
