Biased News Detection Using Artificial Intelligence

Arianna H.

Biased news has become especially problematic in modern times. In this paper, we investigate the abilities of various machine learning models to correctly identify biased news. Our results indicate that artificial intelligence is very capable of doing this detection. In particular, both logistic regression and K-nearest neighbor classifier performed rather well in cross validation.

Fake News Classification

As fake news becomes more of a problem across the US, its consequences are becoming more and more damaging. This project aims to combat this disinformation through an artificial intelligence algorithm that can classify real articles versus fake ones.

Sleep Stage Classification: Investigating Deep Learning with High Dataset Imbalance Under Temporal Interval Change and Data Imbalance Techniques

This study investigates automated sleep stage classification using a CNN-GRU architecture, demonstrating that three-channel multimodal data and longer temporal contexts (60s and 90s) improve classification performance compared with two-channel and 30s approaches. The findings support ASSC as an efficient and accurate alternative to manual sleep scoring, with the best-performing model achieving a macro F1 score of 0.78 ± 0.02.
