The notion of "fake news" has risen in prominence in the U.S. political arena over the past decade, largely due to the proliferation of social media platforms. A recently published study by TSYS School computer scientist Yi Zhou and colleagues from Yangzhou University and Auburn University proposes a computational approach for detecting fake news in a real time. Their method, described in the 2023 volume of Expert Systems with Applications, leverages event and topic extraction techniques in tandem with a topic merging mechanism to process news data and reduce the number of topics. "Our approach incorporates a two-stage procedure to optimize the cold-start ratio between initial and other data batches to improve memory management during the processing of streaming data," Zhou explained. Computational experiments in different system settings for benchmarking the proposed methodology demonstrate that it takes less time in detecting fake news by reducing the number of topics by 19.8% and the number of data clusters by 26.9%, both compared to other baselines.
The Turner College's new marketing intern Lizzy Grant , a senior marketing major from Newnan who previously attended Gordon State College, where she played varsity soccer, and is scheduled to graduate from the Turner College in May of 2024, has hit the ground running in her new position. She recently played a large role in the creation of a video tour of the Synovus Center, the main campus home of the Turner College. The video helps to guide new students on where to go in the building and who they can talk to if they help. The video showcases the Student Services Center, the main lobby, and more. The video is played as part of a loop on video screens placed throughout the Synovus Center. Lizzy's list of activities at CSU is impressive. She is the Treasurer of the Turner College's Marketing Club, the President of Marketing for the Turner College's chapter of the Financial Management Association, and an Ambassador for the Turner College. She is also the Treasurer of her s
