Research on Internet Rumor Identification Based on Artificial intelligence Text Content Analysis
This research addresses the pervasive issue of internet rumors, focusing on identification through AI-driven text content analysis. Utilizing Sina Weibo data, the study develops a classification model that categorizes rumors by theme and extracts specific textual features (word, symbol, emotional, emoji, meme, sentence length, pronouns). The experimental results, validated with SVM using the WEKA platform, demonstrate that theme-specific features significantly improve rumor detection accuracy, achieving up to 79.48% F-value with combined features. This approach promises more timely and accurate rumor identification to mitigate social impact.

Information Identification & Verification
| Method/Feature Category | Description | Effectiveness / Example |
|---|---|---|
| Support Vector Machine (SVM) | A powerful supervised learning model used for classification and regression tasks. Proven effective for rumor detection. | Achieved 88% precision & 99% recall on Twitter data; 90.5% precision & 92.2% recall in other studies. |
| Text Content Features | Includes statistical features of words, symbols, emotional words, emojis, memes, sentence length, and personal pronouns. | Word features alone yield 74.83% F-value; combined features improve accuracy significantly. |
| Topic-Based Classification | Categorizing rumors by themes (e.g., aid/rescue) and applying specific feature sets for improved accuracy. | Theme-specific features enhance detection efficacy, especially for nuanced rumor types. |

SVM Classifier Performance
Studies show SVM's effectiveness:
- Ma et al. achieved 88% precision and 99% recall on a Twitter dataset, and 86.1% precision and 85.4% recall on a Sina Weibo dataset.
- Wu et al. achieved 90.5% precision and 92.2% recall for rumor detection with a hybrid SVM classifier.
- These results confirm SVM classifiers' superior performance for identifying online rumors.
This study confirms that online rumors can be categorized by theme, and identifying factors vary across these themes. The developed model, using theme-specific features and SVM classification on Sina Weibo data, effectively detects rumors. This approach significantly enhances detection accuracy.
Future research will involve constructing more comprehensive rumor identification features for specific topics and exploring advanced machine learning techniques to further refine the model's accuracy and generalizability across diverse social media platforms.
