Abstract Automatic sarcasm detection in textual data is a crucial task in sentiment analysis. This problem is complex because sarcastic comments usually carry the opposite meaning and are context-driven.

The results show that the lexicon-based model correctly identified 48.5% sarcastic and 23.5% nonsarcastic tweets with the recall of 69.6% and 87.9% precision. The recall rate of Naïve Bayes and SVM-based machine learning models was 20.1% and 24.4%, respectively, with an overall accuracy of 65.2% and 60.1%, respectively. 1.
