ReINTEL Challenge 2020: Exploiting Transfer Learning Models for Reliable Intelligence Identification on Vietnamese Social Network Sites
This work addresses the challenge of misinformation detection in Vietnamese social media, but it is incremental as it applies existing transfer learning methods to a new dataset.
The paper tackled the problem of identifying reliable intelligence on Vietnamese social network sites by fine-tuning transfer learning models like bert4news and PhoBERT, achieving an AUC score of 94.52% on a private test set.
This paper presents the system that we propose for the Reliable Intelligence Indentification on Vietnamese Social Network Sites (ReINTEL) task of the Vietnamese Language and Speech Processing 2020 (VLSP 2020) Shared Task. In this task, the VLSP 2020 provides a dataset with approximately 6,000 trainning news/posts annotated with reliable or unreliable labels, and a test set consists of 2,000 examples without labels. In this paper, we conduct experiments on different transfer learning models, which are bert4news and PhoBERT fine-tuned to predict whether the news is reliable or not. In our experiments, we achieve the AUC score of 94.52% on the private test set from ReINTEL's organizers.
