πŸ” systemFactChecking – Hybrid Information Credibility Verification System

A hybrid fact-checking system combining predicate-logic rules, ontologies (OWL), and neuro-symbolic AI to evaluate the credibility of information sources.

SysCRED est un système hybride de fact-checking combinant :

  • Symbolic AI : Raisonnement par rΓ¨gles et ontologies (OWL/RDF)

  • Neural AI : Transformers pour NER, sentiment, cohΓ©rence

  • IR Engine : Recherche d’évidence (BM25, TF-IDF, TREC)

  • GraphRAG : MΓ©moire contextuelle par graphe de connaissances

  • E-E-A-T : Scoring qualitΓ© Google (Experience, Expertise, Authority, Trust)

  • Technologies: Python, NLP, OWL Ontologies, Machine Learning, Neuro-symbolic AI

  • Status: Active Research (Doctoral Project) sysCRED
