email How to Detect Sarcasm with Artificial Intelligence
Humans make inferences about tone and meaning, but algorithms can find hidden relationships between words to detect irony and intentional falsehood.
A new AI tool funded in part by the U.S. military has proven adept at a task that has traditionally been very difficult for computer programs: detecting the human art of sarcasm. It could help intelligence officers or agencies better apply artificial intelligence to trend analysis by avoiding social media posts that aren’t serious.
Certain words in specific combinations can be a predictable indicator of sarcasm in a social media post, even if there isn’t much other context, two researchers from the University of Central Florida noted in a March paper in the journal

That s where sentiment analysis comes in. The term refers to the automated process of identifying the emotion either positive, negative or neutral associated with text. While artificial intelligence refers to logical data analysis and response, sentiment analysis is akin to correctly identifying emotional communication. A UCF team develo
