People can detect disinformation by evaluating the credibility of user accounts. Follows are some account characteristics that can provide important clues for assessing suspicious sources of information.
User Profile: A user profile is a collection of information associated with a user. It contains the user name, user portrait, the language used by the account, the locations of the account, the creation time of the account, and so on.
User Behavior: The behavior is an important feature of how spreaders interact within groups on social media. It contains how many posts does the account has and how often does the account post, reply, share, and so on.
