This article explores the possibilities for federated learning with a deep learning method as a basic approach to train detection models for fake news recognition. Federated learning is the key issue in this research because this kind of learning makes machine learning more secure by training models on decentralized data at decentralized places, for example, at different IoT edges. The data are not transformed between decentralized places, which means that personally identifiable data are not shared.

This article focuses on the problem of detecting toxicity in online discussions. Toxicity is currently a serious problem when people are largely influenced by opinions on social networks. We offer a solution based on classification models using machine learning methods to classify short texts on social networks into multiple degrees of toxicity.

The article focuses on solving an important problem of detecting suspicious reviewers in online discussions on social networks. We have concentrated on a special type of suspicious authors, on trolls. We have used methods of machine learning for generation of detection models to discriminate a troll reviewer from a common reviewer, but also methods of sentiment analysis to recognize the sentiment typical for troll's comments.
