More than six million people died of the COVID-19 by April 2022. The heavy casualties have put people on great and urgent alert, and people have tried to find all kinds of information to keep them from being infected by the coronavirus. This research tries to find out whether the mobile health text information sent to people's devices is correct as smartphones have become the major information source for people. The proposed method uses various mobile information retrieval and data mining technologies including lexical analysis, stopword elimination, stemming, and decision trees to classify the mobile health text information to one of the following classes: (1) true, (2) fake, (3) misinformative, (4) disinformative, and (5) neutral. Experiment results show the accuracy of the proposed method is above the threshold value 50% but is not optimal. It is because the problem, mobile text misinformation identification, is intrinsically difficult. |
