Abstract
The increasing prevalence of fake news on social media has become a significant challenge in today’s digital landscape. This paper proposes a hybrid framework for fake news detection, combining Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and machine learning algorithms. Using Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) for feature extraction, and classifiers such as Logistic Regression (LR), Naïve Bayes (NB), and Support Vector Machines (SVM), the model integrates Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) with Logistic Regression to achieve 95% accuracy and 93% precision on a Kaggle dataset. The results highlight the potential of combining statistical and NLP approaches to improve fake news detection accuracy.
