Modern misinformation is often heard before it is read, yet fact-checking systems are still evaluated mainly on clean written claims. Spoken dialogue remains different even when systems operate on transcripts: claims may be distributed across speakers and turns, depend on prior context, and become harder to verify when Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) errors distort the available text. Prior spoken dialogue fact-checking resources are small, English-centric, or focused on annotation rather than end-to-end benchmarking, leaving no large multilingual benchmark with paired speech and turn-level labels. We introduce TRILOGUE (TRIlingual spoken diaLOGUE fact-checking), a large-scale trilingual benchmark of source-grounded spoken dialogues in English, Russian, and Kazakh. It contains nearly 12K dialogues, 187K turns, and 390 hours of paired audio with ASR transcripts and word-level timestamp alignments across all three languages, including nearly 5K human-recorded Russian and Kazakh dialogue files. TRILOGUE supports claim check-worthiness detection, source-article evidence retrieval, and claim verification with claim-only, gold-evidence, and retrieved-evidence inputs. Baselines show that ASR degradation and cross-lingual transfer remain challenging, especially for Kazakh, while retrieved source evidence substantially narrows the gap to gold-evidence verification.

Video misinformation detection is often approached through global multimodal fusion or free-form multimodal reasoning. Both paradigms can under-represent localized authenticity cues that arise from coupled interactions among query phrases, contextual text, and short temporal spans of frames. Because such interactions are inherently higher-order, pairwise graph formulations are insufficient to capture multi-way cross-modal dependencies, whereas hypergraphs offer a suitable representation for these relations. We propose HyperClaim, a discriminative temporal hypergraph framework for sample-level authenticity classification. Using the title or benchmark-provided paired text as a claim-like query, HyperClaim constructs a sparse heterogeneous hypergraph over query tokens, evidence tokens, and sampled frames; applies confidence-aware filtering and source budgeting to form compact text-frame and short-range temporal evidence units; performs adaptive soft-incidence reasoning with residual text-video calibration; and aggregates textual, visual, and hyperedge states through a discrepancy-aware readout. Without relying on generated rationales or external tool calls, HyperClaim preserves fine-grained cross-modal and temporal structure that global fusion tends to flatten. Under the FactGuard temporal protocol, it achieves 83.7%, 82.0%, and 87.3% accuracy on FakeSV, FakeTT, and FakeVV, respectively, outperforming strong discriminative and reasoning-centric baselines. Learned incidence and attention weights further reveal token- and frame-level structure.

This work proposes StateBridge, a training-free latent communication approach that aligns the sender's final-layer hidden states to the receiver's input space via a closed-form orthogonal transformation and prepended to the input of the receiver agent as a continuous prefix.
