Abstract

Social platforms, while facilitating access to information, have also become saturated with a plethora of fake news, resulting in negative consequences. Automatic multimodal fake news detection is a worthwhile pursuit. Existing multimodal fake news datasets only provide binary labels of real or fake. However, real news is alike, while each fake news is fake in its own way. These datasets fail to reflect the mixed nature of various types of multimodal fake news. To bridge the gap, we construct an attributing multi-granularity multimodal fake news detection dataset , revealing the inherent fake pattern. Furthermore, we propose a multi-granularity clue alignment model to achieve multimodal fake news detection and attribution. Experimental results demonstrate that is a challenging dataset, and its attribution setting opens up new avenues for future research.
