Correction: Computational Fact Checking from Knowledge Networks.

There is an error in the last sentence of the “Validation on factual statements” section of the Results. The sentence should read: With this method we estimate that, in the four subject areas, true statements are assigned higher truth values than false ones with probability 95%, 98%, 100%, and 95%, respectively.

Fig 4 is incorrect. Please view the corrected figure below.

Receiver Operating Characteristic for the multiple questions task.

For each confusion matrix depicted in Fig 3 we compute ROC curves where true statements correspond to the diagonal and false statements to off-diagonal elements. The red dashed line represents the performance of a random classifier.
