Enhanced the Accuracy of Text of a Tweet by Detecting Sarcasm using Transfer Learning
Keywords:
Sarcasm, Sentiment Analysis, Twitter, Transfer Learning, Naive Bayes, Entropy based Decision TreeAbstract
A sentence's polarity can be reversed by the use of sarcasm. Despite the widespread usage of sentiment analysis on social media, identifying and analyzing sentiments is still challenging, given the possibility of sarcasm. Even humans find identifying sarcasm in any given text or sentence difficult. Because of this, sarcasm detection with the help of computers becomes an even more significant and challenging task. Several types of research are done regarding sarcasm detection to detect sarcasm in the given text. Unique words are primarily used in sarcasm, and finding the usage of how these individual words are used in tweets or sentences can help detect sarcasm detection. Our research focuses mainly on detecting sarcasm in the texts and creating state-of-the-art model, by combining two models Naïve Bayes, and Decision Tree(entropy-based approach). In our research, we try to combine the methods of the above two approaches to improve the accuracy of sarcasm detection and create a state-of-the-art method for sarcasm detection in texts primarily tweets of the twitter.
