Social media has become very popular and important in people’s lives, as personal ideas, beliefs and opinions are expressed and shared through them. Unfortunately, social networks, and specifically Twitter, suffer from massive existence and perpetual creation of fake users. Their goal is to deceive other users employing various methods, or even create a stream of fake news and opinions in order to influence an idea upon a specific subject, thus impairing the platform’s integrity. As such, machine learning techniques have been widely used in social networks to address this type of threat by automatically identifying fake accounts. Nonetheless, threat actors update their arsenal and launch a range of sophisticated attacks to undermine this detection procedure, either during the training or test phase, rendering machine learning algorithms vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Our work examines the propagation of adversarial attacks in machine learning based detection for fake Twitter accounts, which is based on AdaBoost. Moreover, we propose and evaluate the use of k-NN as a countermeasure to remedy the effects of the adversarial attacks that we have implemented.

To build a social network or social relations between people, we use social networking platforms like Facebook, Twitter, apps, etc. Using this media, users can share their views and opinions about a particular thing. Many people use their media for personal interests, entertainment, the market stocks, or business purposes. Nowadays, user security is the major concern for social networking sites. Online social networks give a little bit of support regarding content filtering. In this article, we proposed a system that provides security regarding malicious content that is posted on their social networking sites. To filter the content that might be unwanted messages, labeled images, or vulgar images, we proposed three level architecture. The user can use the auto-blocking facility as well.


: Web based life administrations, as Facebook and Twitter, Renren, Instagram, and linkedin have recently become an enormous and persistent supply of day by day news. These stages give a huge number of clients and give numerous administrations, for example, content arrangement and distributing. Not all distributed information via internet based medium is dependable and exact. Numerous individuals attempt to distribute fake and mistaken news so as to control general conclusion. Counterfeit news might be intentionally made to advance money related, political and public premiums, and can lead to unsafe effects on people convictions and choices.. In this paper we examine different systems for recognizing counterfeit information via internet based networking medium. Our point is to locate a dependable and right model that arranges a given article as fake or genuine. For identification of fake articles we use machine learning algorithms.

Social media websites are among the internet's most far-reaching digital sites. Billions of social network users exist Users' frequent interactions with social networking sites, like Twitter, have a widespread and sometimes unfortunate effect on day-to-day life. Social networking sites make it easy for large amounts of unwanted and unrelated information to spread around the world. Twitter is a popular micro blogging service where users connect with others with similar interests. Because of the current popularity of Twitter, it is vulnerable to public shaming. Recently, Twitter has emerged as a rich source of human-generated information, with the added benefit of connecting you with customers and enabling two-way communication. It is generally accepted that when someone posts a comment in an occurrence, it is likely to humiliate the victim. The fact that shaming users' follower counts increase faster than that of the people who don't use shame is interesting. Using machine learning algorithms, users will be able to identify disrespectful words, as well as the overall negativity of those words, which is displayed in a percentage.

This study is to help readers to understand detection of fake news using machine learning. The main purpose of the planned system is to build an application which identifies fake news stories from a bunch of news stories to make people aware of fake news rumours. With the help of machine learning algorithms, we can detect and separate out the fake news. Nowadays, it is become harder to identify the original source of news stories, like looking for a needle in a haystack. In the modern world, news is a kind of communication that keeps us up to date on the latest events, topics, and people in the wider globe. A society relies on news for a variety of reasons, the most important of which is informing its members about events taking on in and around them that might influence them. Oral and traditional media, as well as digital communication methods, altered videos, memes, unconfirmed marketing, and social media have all contributed to the spread of rumors. As nowadays many people use social media in many cases people get wrong and misleading information and people share those stories without verifying whether it is real or fake news stories. Spreading false information on social media has become a major problem these days. That is why we need a system that can tell us whether something is false news or not. Applications are: 1. Fake news may be detected on social media using this approach. 2. The system can be used to help news channels to broadcast only real and classified news. 3. Users can easily detect and eliminate fake articles that contain misinformation intended to mislead readers.

Machine learning is an approach of artificial intelligence (AI) where the machine can automatically learn and improve its performance on experience. It is not explicitly programmed; the data is fed into the generic algorithm and it builds logic based on the data provided. Traditional algorithms have to define new rules or massive rules when the pattern varies or the number of patterns increases, which reduces the accuracy or efficiency of the algorithms. But the machine learning algorithms learn new input patterns capable of handling complex situations while maintaining accuracy and efficiency. Due to its effectual benefits, machine learning algorithms are used in various domains like healthcare, industries, travel, game development, social media services, robotics, and surveillance and information security. In this chapter, the application of machine learning technique in healthcare is discussed in detail.


The extensive spread of fake news (low quality news with intentionally false information) has the potential for extremely negative impacts on individuals, society and particular in the political world. Therefore, fake news detection on social media has recently become an emerging research which is attracting tremendous attention. Detection of false information is technically challenging for several reasons. Use of various social media tools, content is easily generated and quickly spread, which lead to a large volume of content to analyze. Online information is very wide spread, which cover a large number of subjects, which contributes complexity to this task. The application of machine learning techniques are explored for the detection of ‘fake news’ that come from non-reputable sources which mislead real news stories. The purpose of the work is to come up with a solution that can be utilized by users to detect and filter out sites containing false and misleading information. This paper performs survey of Machine learning techniques which is mainly used for false detection and provides easier way to generate results.
