Sarcastic text is a type of text that contains a kind of irony, in which negative expressions are expressed as positive by attributing meanings to words that contradict their real meanings during communication. During face-to-face communication, changes in tone of voice, body language, eye contact or word stress make it easier for the other person to detect the sarcastic expression. However, it is challenging to detect sarcastic expressions only through text in machine learning-based systems since human-centred qualities cannot be transferred. Newspapers often use sarcastic expressions in their headlines to attract people's attention. However, many people cannot fully understand whether these expressions are sarcastic or not without reading the content of the text. As a result, they can transmit false information to the people around them through direct communication or social media. In this study, to prevent such misinformation, newspaper headlines with and without sarcasm are tried to be classified on three different GPUs with deep learning methods. As a result, the developed model can successfully detect news headlines containing sarcasm.
