Abstract

Unreliable web pages, such as fake news, have become an unavoidable problem. To tackle this problem, recent researches have adopted both content and social features to predict the credibility of the web pages; however, the accuracy is almost saturated. In this paper, we propose the adoption of Google Lighthouse features to predict web page credibility. Our experimental results show that the proposed method achieves an increased accuracy of 7.9% in comparison with state-of-the-art methods.
