Fake News Detection with BERT

Transformer classifier with claim highlighting and source scoring

2-3 weeks build

Overview

A fine-tuned transformer that classifies news articles as reliable or misleading, highlights the spans that drove the decision using SHAP, and cross-checks the publishing source against a credibility index.

What makes it stand up

  • 01Fine-tuned BERT baseline with an LSTM comparison
  • 02SHAP token attributions rendered inline in the article
  • 03Source credibility scoring from a curated registry
  • 04Paste-text and fetch-by-URL input modes
  • 05Ablation study comparing four model variants

Module breakdown

  1. 01

    Data

    Corpus assembly, de-duplication and stratified splits.

  2. 02

    Modelling

    Fine-tuning loop, scheduler and early stopping.

  3. 03

    Explainability

    SHAP values mapped back to tokens.

  4. 04

    App

    Streamlit interface with verdict and evidence.

  5. 05

    Benchmarks

    Model comparison table and error analysis.

After this, you will be able to

  • Explain attention and why BERT outperforms bag-of-words
  • Present a credible ablation study
  • Discuss dataset bias honestly
