Generating a graphical representation of relationships among a set of articles and information associated with the set of articles

Abstract:

An online system identifies articles containing factual reporting and information associated with the articles (e.g., authors, publishers, distributors, content, etc.). The online system extracts embeddings for the articles based on the information associated with the articles and generates nodes of a graph, in which each node corresponds to an article or information associated with an article. The online system then identifies relationships among the nodes using the embeddings and generates additional nodes of the graph indicating these relationships. Each of the additional nodes may correspond to any type of information that may be associated with an article. The online system may query the graph for information identifying publishers that published articles alleging a fact, information identifying articles containing editorialized content or clickbait, etc. or to identify and remove similar articles from a feed to be presented to an online system user, to highlight contradicting articles in the feed, etc.
