In this paper, the authors develop an automated fact-checking system to combat misinformation on social media. They utilize the Averitec dataset and a Retrieve and Generate (RAG) pipeline to extract relevant evidence sentences from a knowledge base. These sentences are then inputted along with the claim into a large language model (LLM) for classification. The authors also evaluate the few-shot In-Context Learning (ICL) capabilities of multiple LLMs. Their system achieves an ‘Averitec’ score of 0.33, which is a 22% absolute improvement over the baseline.

This automated fact-checking system can help verify online claims and prevent misinformation from spreading. It uses the Averitec dataset to train a model that extracts relevant evidence sentences from a knowledge base. This information is then used to classify whether an online claim is true or false. The authors also test different language models to see which one works best.
