FakeSV

Official repository for "FakeSV: A Multimodal Benchmark with Rich Social Context for Fake News Detection on Short Video Platforms", AAAI 2023. (Please note that the arxiv version is more complete.)

• Dataset: The video ID (which can be used to infer the video URL) and corresponding annotations have been released. Also, we provide two data split used in the paper, i.e. event-based and temporal.
• Models: We reproduce some SOTA methods on fake news video detection to provide benchmark results for FakeSV. Codes for our proposed model SV-FEND and other methods are provided.

Environment

Anaconda 4.13.0, python 3.8.5, pytorch 1.10.1 and cuda 11.7. For other libs, please refer to the file requirements.txt.
