• Authors: Amirhossein Abaskohi, Arash Rasouli, Tanin Zeraati, Behnam Bahrak
• Abstract summary: Sarcasm is a term that refers to the use of words to mock, irritate, or amuse someone. The metaphorical and creative nature of sarcasm presents a significant difficulty for sentiment analysis systems based on affective computing. We put different models, and data augmentation approaches to the test and report on which one works best.

• Abstract: Sarcasm is a term that refers to the use of words to mock, irritate, or amuse someone. It is commonly used on social media. The metaphorical and creative nature of sarcasm presents a significant difficulty for sentiment analysis systems based on affective computing. The methodology and results of our team, UTNLP, in the SemEval-2022 shared task 6 on sarcasm detection are presented in this paper. We put different models, and data augmentation approaches to the test and report on which one works best. The tests begin with traditional machine learning models and progress to transformer-based and attention-based models. We employed data augmentation based on data mutation and data generation. Using RoBERTa and mutation-based data augmentation, our best approach achieved an F1-sarcastic of 0.38 in the competition's evaluation phase. After the competition, we fixed our model's flaws and achieved an F1-sarcastic of 0.414.

  We introduce an innovative strategy that leverages the capabilities of generative AI models to create synthetic data for suicidal ideation detection. We benchmarked against state-of-the-art NLP classification models, specifically, those centered around the BERT family structures. Our synthetic data-driven method, informed by social factors, offers consistent F1-scores of 0.82 for both models.

  Anomaly detection using deep learning requires comprehensive data, but insider threat data is not readily available due to confidentiality concerns. We propose a linear manifold learning-based generative adversarial network, SPCAGAN, that takes input from heterogeneous data sources. We show that our proposed approach has a lower error, is more accurate, and generates substantially superior synthetic insider threat data than previous models.

  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.

• Contrastive Model Inversion for Data-Free Knowledge Distillation [60.08025054715192]
  We propose Contrastive Model Inversion, where the data diversity is explicitly modeled as an optimizable objective. Our main observation is that, under the constraint of the same amount of data, higher data diversity usually indicates stronger instance discrimination. Experiments on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and Tiny-ImageNet demonstrate that CMI achieves significantly superior performance when the generated data are used for knowledge distillation.
