Sarcasm Detection -- How to Identify Sarcastic Statements in Twitter --
Mondher Bouazizi, Tomoaki Ohtsuki (Keio Univ.) ASN2015-21
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Sarcasm is a special form of speech by which the person conveys implicit information, within the message he transmits. Sarcasm is widely used in social networks and microblogging websites such as Twitter, where people criticize or give remarks in a way that makes it difficult even for humans to tell if what is said is what is meant. Recognizing sarcastic statements can be very useful to improve automatic sentiment analysis of data collected from the net. It helps also enhance the efficiency of after-sales services by understanding the real intentions and opinions of consumers when browsing their feedback or complaints. In this article we propose a method for sarcasm detection in Twitter. We identify the different types of sarcasm used in social networks. We propose four sets of features that cover these types of sarcasm, and that will be used to classify tweets into sarcastic and non-sarcastic. We evaluate the performances of our approach. We study the importance of each set of features and evaluate its importance in the classification.
