Fake news has become a major problem affecting people, society, the economy and national security. This work proposes a combined deep learning model based on the ideal distance weighting method for fake news detection. The proposed model was validated on the ISOT and COVID-19 fake news datasets. Firstly, the ISOT and COVID-19 fake news datasets were collected. Secondly, the training-based models were used to provide accuracy values. After that, these values were transformed into criteria weights using the new ideal distance weighting method. Finally, the prediction value of the proposed model is calculated by the criteria weights. The results show that the proposed method is effective to distinguish the fake news datasets.
