# Dutch Sarcasm Detector

Dutch Sarcasm Detector is a text classification model built to detect sarcasm from news article titles. It is fine-tuned on bert-multilingual uncased and the training data consists of ready-made dataset available on Kaggle as well scraped data from Dutch sarcastic newspaper (De Speld).


## Training Data
	  
Datasets:
- Dutch non-sarcastic data: [Kaggle: Dutch News Articles]([https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/maxscheijen/dutch-news-articles])

Scraped data:
- Dutch sarcastic news from [De Speld]([https://speld.nl])

Codebase:
- Git Repo: [Official repository](https://github.com/helinivan/multilingual-sarcasm-detector)

## Example of classification

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
import string

def preprocess_data(text: str) -> str:
   return text.lower().translate(str.maketrans("", "", string.punctuation)).strip()

MODEL_PATH = "helinivan/dutch-sarcasm-detector"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL_PATH)
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(MODEL_PATH)

text = "We deden een man een nacht in een vat met cola en nu is hij dood"
tokenized_text = tokenizer([preprocess_data(text)], padding=True, truncation=True, max_length=512, return_tensors="pt")
output = model(**tokenized_text)
probs = output.logits.softmax(dim=-1).tolist()[0]
confidence = max(probs)
prediction = probs.index(confidence)
results = {"is_sarcastic": prediction, "confidence": confidence}

```

Output: 

```
{'is_sarcastic': 1, 'confidence': 0.9999982118606567}
```
