通过模拟专家协作与争议生成评论,提升谣言早期检测效果。
Collaboration and Controversy Among Experts: Rumor Early Detection by Tuning a Comment Generator
- 用多专家结构生成类人评论,增强早期谣言判断依据。
- 在真实数据集上,准确率比现有方法提升5.2%以上。
- 适合需要高精度早期预警的社交媒体风控场景。
过去十年,社交媒体平台成为谣言传播的主要渠道,造成严重负面影响。为应对这一问题,研究社区开发了多种基于用户评论的谣言检测(RD)算法。然而,在谣言传播初期,因可用评论极少,现有方法表现不佳,促使研究转向更具挑战性的谣言早期检测(RED)问题。现有方法通常仅依赖早期评论中的有限语义信息。我们初步实验发现,当训练与测试评论数量一致且充足时,模型性能最佳。据此,我们提出通过生成更多类人评论来支持该假设。为此,我们设计了一个名为CAMERED的新框架,通过模拟专家协作与争议来调优评论生成器。具体而言,将多专家结构融入生成式语言模型,并提出新颖的路由网络实现专家协作;构建知识型合成数据集,采用对抗学习策略使生成评论风格贴近真实;进一步引入生成与原始评论的互斥融合模块。实验表明,CAMERED显著优于当前最先进的RED基线模型及生成方法,验证了其有效性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Over the past decade, social media platforms have been key in spreading rumors, leading to significant negative impacts. To counter this, the community has developed various Rumor Detection (RD) algorithms to automatically identify them using user comments as evidence. However, these RD methods often fail in the early stages of rumor propagation when only limited user comments are available, leading the community to focus on a more challenging topic named Rumor Early Detection (RED). Typically, existing RED methods learn from limited semantics in early comments. However, our preliminary experiment reveals that the RED models always perform best when the number of training and test comments is consistent and extensive. This inspires us to address the RED issue by generating more human-like comments to support this hypothesis. To implement this idea, we tune a comment generator by simulating expert collaboration and controversy and propose a new RED framework named CAMERED. Specifically, we integrate a mixture-of-expert structure into a generative language model and present a novel routing network for expert collaboration. Additionally, we synthesize a knowledgeable dataset and design an adversarial learning strategy to align the style of generated comments with real-world comments. We further integrate generated and original comments with a mutual controversy fusion module. Experimental results show that CAMERED outperforms state-of-the-art RED baseline models and generation methods, demonstrating its effectiveness.
