Summary: | Online social networks provide convenient conditions for the spread of rumors, and false rumors bring great harm to social life. Rumor dissemination is a process, and effective identification of rumors in the early stage of their appearance will reduce the negative impact of false rumors. This paper proposes a novel early rumor detection (ERD) model based on reinforcement learning. In the rumor detection part, a dual-engine rumor detection model based on deep learning is proposed to realize the differential feature extraction of original tweets and their replies. A double self-attention (DSA) mechanism is proposed, which can eliminate data redundancy in sentences and words at the same time. In the reinforcement learning part, an ERD model based on Deep Recurrent Q-Learning Network (DRQN) is proposed, which uses LSTM to learn the state sequence features, and the optimization strategy of the reward function is to take into account the timeliness and accuracy of rumor detection. Experiments show that, compared with existing methods, the ERD model proposed in this paper has a greater improvement in the timeliness and detection rate of rumor detection.
