Overview

Unified Multimodal Misinformation Framework

Real-world fake news leverages both misleading imagery and biased linguistic phrasing. Our framework extracts deep contextual embeddings from text using DeBERTa/RoBERTa and visual feature hierarchies with Swin Transformer & CLIP-ViT.

Text Encoders: DeBERTa-v3, RoBERTa-large, BERT

Vision Encoders: Swin-B (Shifted Windows), CLIP-ViT-B/16

Fusion Mechanism: Learned Gated Unit \( g = \sigma(W_g \cdot [h_t; h_v]) \)

Loss Objective: Cross-Entropy with Label Smoothing

A Unified Multimodal Framework for Fake News Detection Using BERT and Vision Transformers

Ayush Mishra, et al.

International Conference on Intelligent Computing, Cognitive Networks, and Smart Systems (IC2NS2 2026)

Abstract: The proliferation of digital misinformation across modern web platforms poses severe societal challenges. In this paper, we propose an integrated multimodal deep learning framework that harnesses the contextual representation power of Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) along with hierarchical Vision Transformers (ViT/Swin). By introducing a gated cross-modal fusion layer, our network adaptively weights linguistic credibility indicators against visual incongruities, effectively suppressing deceptive signal propagation. Extensive empirical evaluations validate superior classification performance and generalization across diverse fake news benchmarks.
