balancedtest.csv and fulltrain.csv can be obtained from https://drive.google.com/file/d/1njY42YQD5Mzsx2MKkI_DdtCk5OUKgaqq/view?usp=sharing (thanks to https://github.com/MysteryVaibhav/fake_news_semantics)

test.xsls is basically the SLN dataset according to the paper. You can obtain this dataset from http://victoriarubin.fims.uwo.ca/news-verification/data-to-go/

UPDATE: The datasets from the above links seem to be changed. I have found the data in my local machine and uploaded it to the release(raw_data.zip): https://github.com/BUPT-GAMMA/CompareNet_FakeNewsDetection/releases/tag/dataset
