Summary In recent years, there has been a proliferation of opinion-heavy texts on the Web: opinions of Internet users, comments on social networks, etc. Automating the synthesis of opinions has become crucial to gaining an overview on a given topic. Current automatic systems perform well on classifying the subjective or objective character of a document.

Automatic Detection of Irony presents, in three stages, a supervised learning approach to predicting whether a tweet is ironic or not.

It then develops an automatic irony detection model for French tweets that exploits semantic traits and extralinguistic context.
