Abstract

Fake news is a problem faced by society in this era. It is not rare for fake news to cause provocation and problem for the people. Indonesia, as a country with the 4th largest population, has a problem in dealing with fake news. More than 30% of rural and urban population are deceived by this fake news problem. As we have been studying, there is only few literatures on preventing the spread of fake news in Bahasa Indonesia. So, this research is conducted to prevent these problems. The dataset used in this research was obtained from a news portal that identifies fake news, turnbackhoax.id. Using Web Scrapping on this page, we got 1116 data consisting of valid news and fake news. The dataset can be accessed at https://github.com/JibranFawaid/turnbackhoax-dataset. This dataset will be combined with other available datasets. The methods used are CNN, BiLSTM, Hybrid CNN-BiLSTM, and BERT with Transformer Network. This research shows that the BERT method with Transformer Network has the best results with an accuracy of up to 90%.
