Celebrating the Success of Jamhuriya University’s Research Grant Project on Identifying Somali Fake News through Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning

We are thrilled to announce the recent participation of Eng. Mohamed A. Mohamud, the President of Jamhuriya University of Science and Technology, in the signing ceremony of the winning research project at the prestigious CEALT University of Djibouti. The project, titled Identification of Somali Fake News on social media using Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning, was submitted by the Center for Higher Studies at Jamhuriya University and emerged as one of the 16 victorious research projects out of the 46 entries received from different countries.

We extend our warmest congratulations to the talented researchers involved in the project – Dr. Muhidin, Dr. Fu’ad, Eng. Shafie, and Eng. Hanad. Their outstanding abilities and relentless dedication have brought great pride and recognition to both Jamhuriya University and the researchers themselves.

The significance of this research project cannot be overstated, as it addresses the pressing issue of fake news on social media platforms. The proliferation of misinformation has become increasingly rampant, and it is essential to develop effective methods to identify and combat this harmful phenomenon. By utilizing advanced techniques such as natural language processing and deep learning, our researchers aim to detect and classify misleading information accurately and efficiently.
