摘要

Sarcasm detection has become an essential task in natural language processing, especially in social media, where sarcasm is frequently used to convey nonliteral meanings that can distort sentiment analysis outcomes. This study proposes a multimodal approach that integrates text and audio features to enhance sarcasm detection accuracy. Traditional sarcasm detection methods often rely solely on text-based features, which may fail to capture the vocal cues associated with sarcastic intent. Our proposed model combines text features such as TF-IDF, word embeddings, and sentiment polarity shifts with audio features, including pitch, energy intensity, and speech rate. By using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and optimizing the hyperparameters, we achieved an accuracy of 87.8%, significantly outperforming single-modality models. The results highlight the importance of multimodal fusion in sarcasm detection, as combining linguistic and prosodic features provides a more comprehensive understanding of sarcasm, especially in social media content, where users employ both text and vocal nuances to express sarcasm. This approach offers promising applications for enhancing sentiment analysis, social media monitoring, and conversational AI systems. Future work could explore additional modalities, such as visual elements in memes, and leverage deep learning models for further improvements.
