Fake news discovery and propagation from Dig Data analysis and artificial intelligence operations

Fake News is a debated topic in Europe, as well as worldwide, particularly referring to the political and societal challenges that are reflected in business and industry. Europe is lacking a systematic knowledge and data transfer across organizations to address the emergence of the well-known problem of fake news and post-truth effect.

The FANDANGO project is aimed at automatically discovering and classifying fake news, by usage of data science and big data technologies.
