I. INTRODUCTION

Social Media Systems are dramatically ever-changing the

complicated challenges. A key drawback currently is that
social media has become a neighbourhood for campaigns of

pretend news once they're already disseminated, or propose
new options for coaching classifiers, supported concepts that
haven't been tested Thus, it's tough to measure the potential Fig 1 machine learning and deep learning

III. PROPOSED FRAMEWORK

In this paper a model is long remembering
(LSTM).Long remembering (LSTM) networks are a kind of
repeated neural network capable of learning order
dependence in sequence prediction issues.LSTM used for
classification. 2 layers have shown to be enough to find a lot
of advanced options. a lot of layers is higher however
additionally tougher to coach. One hidden layer work with
easy issues , and 2 are enough to search out moderately
advanced options. Fig.3. Dataset
