Twitter-roBERTa-base for Irony Detection

This is a roBERTa-base model trained on ~58M tweets and finetuned for irony detection with the TweetEval benchmark.

• Paper: TweetEval benchmark (Findings of EMNLP 2020) .
• Git Repo: Tweeteval official repository .

Example of classification

from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification
from transformers import TFAutoModelForSequenceClassification
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
import numpy as np
from scipy.special import softmax
import csv
import urllib.request

# Preprocess text (username and link placeholders)
def preprocess(text):
    new_text = [
    ]
    for t in text.split(" "):
        t = '@user' if t.startswith('@') and len(t) > 1 else t
        t = 'http' if t.startswith('http') else t
        new_text.append(t)
    return " ".join(new_text)

# Tasks:

with urllib.request.urlopen(mapping_link) as f:
    html = f.read().decode('utf-8').split("\n")
    csvreader = csv.reader(html, delimiter='\t')
labels = [row[1] for row in csvreader if len(row) > 1]

ranking = np.argsort(scores)
ranking = ranking[::-1]
for i in range(scores.shape[0]):
    l = labels[ranking[i]]
    s = scores[ranking[i]]

Output:

1) irony 0.914
2) non_irony 0.086
