• Abstract: Understanding humor is critical to creative language modeling with many applications in human-AI interaction. However, due to differences in the cognitive systems of the audience, the perception of humor can be highly subjective. Thus, a given passage can be regarded as funny to different degrees by different readers. This makes training humorous text recognition models that can adapt to diverse humor preferences highly challenging. In this paper, we propose the FedHumor approach to recognize humorous text contents in a personalized manner through federated learning (FL). It is a federated BERT model capable of jointly considering the overall distribution of humor scores with humor labels by individuals for given texts. Extensive experiments demonstrate significant advantages of FedHumor in recognizing humor contents accurately for people with diverse humor preferences compared to 9 state-of-the-art humor recognition approaches.

  This paper is the first work that systematically investigates the humor understanding ability of pre-trained language models (PLMs) We construct a comprehensive Chinese humor dataset, which can fully meet all the data requirements of the proposed evaluation framework. Our empirical study on the Chinese humor dataset yields some valuable observations, which are of great guiding value for future optimization of PLMs in humor understanding and generation.

  Large language models (LLMs) can generate synthetic data for humor detection via editing texts. We benchmark LLMs on an existing human dataset and show that current LLMs display an impressive ability to 'unfun' jokes. We extend our approach to a code-mixed English-Hindi humor dataset, where we find that GPT-4's synthetic data is highly rated by bilingual annotators.

PCPR derives contextualized representation for each word in a sentence by capturing the association between the surrounding context and its corresponding phonetic symbols. Results demonstrate that the proposed approach significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in pun detection and location tasks.
