In this paper, I introduce the fake news problem and detail how it has been exacerbated<br/>through social media. I explore current practices for fake news detection using natural language<br/>processing and current benchmarks in ranking the efficacy of various language models. Using a<br/>Twitter-specific benchmark, I attempt to reproduce the scores of six language models<br/>demonstrating their effectiveness in seven tweet classification tasks. I explain the successes and<br/>challenges in reproducing these results and provide analysis for the future implications of fake<br/>news research.
This paper is centered on the use of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to convert or generate RGB images from grayscale ones. The primary goal is to create sensible and colorful versions of a set of grayscale images by training a discriminator to recognize failed or generated images and training a generator to attempt to satisfy the discriminator. The network design is described in further detail below; however there are several potential issues that arise including the averaging of a color for certain images such that small details in an image are not assigned unique colors leading to a neutral blend. We attempt to mitigate this issue as much as possible.
