• Title: Augmenting Data for Sarcasm Detection with Unlabeled Conversation Context
• Authors: Hankyol Lee, Youngjae Yu, Gunhee Kim
• Abstract summary: We present a novel data augmentation technique, CRA (Contextual Response Augmentation), which utilizes conversational context to generate meaningful samples for training. Specifically, our proposed model, trained with the proposed data augmentation technique, participated in the sarcasm detection task of FigLang2020, have won and achieves the best performance in both Reddit and Twitter datasets.

• Abstract: We present a novel data augmentation technique, CRA (Contextual Response Augmentation), which utilizes conversational context to generate meaningful samples for training. We also mitigate the issues regarding unbalanced context lengths by changing the input-output format of the model such that it can deal with varying context lengths effectively. Specifically, our proposed model, trained with the proposed data augmentation technique, participated in the sarcasm detection task of FigLang2020, have won and achieves the best performance in both Reddit and Twitter datasets.

  Sarcasm is the use of words usually used to either mock or annoy someone, or for humorous purposes. We propose a contextual model for sarcasm identification in twitter using RoBERTa and augmenting the dataset. We achieve performance gain by 3.2% in the iSarcasm dataset when using data augmentation to increase 20% of data labeled as sarcastic.
