“…In addition, they proposed the credulous spider rational taciturn rumor propagation model, which solved the problem of overspread in traditional rumor propagation model. Aiming at the rumor source detection task, Fan et al [23] presented a Belief-Propagation-based (BP) algorithm to compute the joint likelihood function of the source location and the spreading time for the general continuous-time Susceptible-Infected epidemic model on trees. Besides, they proposed a "Gamma Generated Tree" heuristic to convert an original graph to a tree, whose edges have heterogeneous infection rates.…”

In the era of the Internet and big data, online social media platforms have been developing rapidly, which accelerate rumors circulation. Rumor detection on social media is a worldwide challenging task due to rumor’s feature of high speed, fragmental information and extensive range. Most existing approaches identify rumors based on single-layered hybrid features like word features, sentiment features and user characteristics, or multimodal features like the combination of text features and image features. Some researchers adopted the hierarchical structure, but they neither used rumor propagation nor made full use of its retweet posts. In this paper, we propose a novel model for rumor detection based on Graph Neural Networks (GNN), named Hierarchically Aggregated Graph Neural Networks (HAGNN). This task focuses on capturing different granularities of high-level representations of text content and fusing the rumor propagation structure. It applies a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) with a graph of rumor propagation to learn the text-granularity representations with the spreading of events. A GNN model with a document graph is employed to update aggregated features of both word and text granularity, it helps to form final representations of events to detect rumors. Experiments on two real-world datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over the baseline methods. Our model achieves the accuracy of 95.7% and 88.2% on the Weibo dataset Ma et al. 2017 and the CED dataset Song et al. IEEE Trans Knowl Data Eng 33(8):3035–3047, 2019respectively.
