Computational Sarcasm Analysis on Social Media: A Systematic Review
Sarcasm can be defined as saying or writing the opposite of what one truly
wants to express, usually to insult, irritate, or amuse someone. Because of the
obscure nature of sarcasm in textual data, detecting it is difficult and of
great interest to the sentiment analysis research community. Though the
research in sarcasm detection spans more than a decade, some significant
advancements have been made recently, including employing unsupervised
pre-trained transformers in multimodal environments and integrating context to
identify sarcasm. In this study, we aim to provide a brief overview of recent
advancements and trends in computational sarcasm research for the English
language. We describe relevant datasets, methodologies, trends, issues,
challenges, and tasks relating to sarcasm that are beyond detection. Our study
provides well-summarized tables of sarcasm datasets, sarcastic features and
their extraction methods, and performance analysis of various approaches which
can help researchers in related domains understand current state-of-the-art
practices in sarcasm detection.Comment: 50 pages, 3 tables, Submitted to 'Data Mining and Knowledge
