A Large Self-Annotated Corpus for Sarcasm

Year: 2018
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: We introduce the Self-Annotated Reddit Corpus (SARC), a large corpus for sarcasm research and for training and evaluating systems for sarcasm detection.The corpus has 1.3 million sarcastic statements -10 times more than any previous dataset -and many times more instances of non-sarcastic statements, allowing for learning in both balanced and unbalanced label regimes.Each statement is furthermore self-annotated -sarcasm is labeled by the author, not an independent annotator -and provided with user, topic, and conversation context.We evaluate the corpus for accuracy, construct benchmarks for sarcasm detection, and evaluate baseline methods.
