Abstract

Social media have earned fame for consuming the news due to their quick proliferation and availability. However, they are also the main contributor in spreading fake news. Fake images spread over microblogging platforms like Twitter generates misrepresentation and arouses destructive emotions in consumers. This makes the detection of fake images over social platforms an extremely critical challenge. Deep learning methods learn the latent features of images and can be utilized in detecting fake images. In this paper, we have used the ResNet-50 a residual neural network to detect fake images. The images are passed through the Error Level Analysis process before being input to the deep learning model to subside the image's main features and bloat the latent features of manipulation. The model is verified against the Twitter image dataset. The experiment proves that residual neural networks perform well in detecting fake images over social media platforms.
