Abstract

News that is presented every day on social media dramatically affects the feelings, feelings, thoughts, or even actions of a person or group. Hoax News is one of them which is disturbing the public and raising noise in various fields, ranging from politics, culture, security, and order, to the economy. Inseparable from social media users. How every day, there is information on social media, which is not necessarily true so that people are provoked by hoax on social media. The news detection system in this study was designed using Unsupported Learning so that it does not require data training. The system was built using the Equation algorithm to calculate the validity of document similarity. Extraction results used to search for content related to user input using a detection engine, then the similarity value and the time needed to utilize hoax news are calculated. System validation testing by using a four text similarity algorithm called the Equation algorithm, the Levenshtein algorithm, the Smith-Waterman algorithm, the Damerau Levenshtein algorithm; this algorithm is used to find the best analytical solution of news hoaxes and submissions needed to find the news hoax password. The final results of the deception detection research using a script that has been done for Validation using an algorithm, get the value of accuracy in detection using the Smith-Waterman algorithm, which produces an accuracy value of text similarity of 99.29% and can be used a process of 6, 57 seconds, followed by the second sequence that is the similarity algorithm produces an accuracy of 75% and requires a processing time of 4.94 seconds, then the third sequence is the Levenshtein algorithm with an accuracy of 55.02% and requires a processing time of 5.49 seconds, and is used today is Damerau Levenshtein algorithm is 55.02% and requires a processing time of 7.54%. The results of research tests on this text can conclude the more text on the detection engine, the higher the verification value and the higher the time needed to process hoax news.
