Propagation2Vec: Embedding partial propagation networks for explainable fake news early detection

作者:

Highlights:

• The propagation pattern of news on social media can facilitate fake news detection.

• Propagation2Vec emphasises informative nodes/cascades to detect fake news.

• Propagation2Vec early reconstructs complete propagation networks by partial networks.

• Propagation2Vec achieves state-of-the-art performance for fake news early detection.

• The underlying logic of Propagation2Vec is explainable by the attention weights.
