论文摘要

计算幽默检测系统很少对幽默反应的主观性进行建模,或者考虑对幽默的替代反应 - 即犯罪。我们分析了不同年龄段的男性和女性注释者的大量幽默和犯罪评级数据集。我们发现女性比男性更强烈地联系这两个概念,她们倾向于给出较低的幽默评分和更高的进攻分数。我们还发现,幽默与犯罪之间的相关性随着年龄的增长而增加。尽管幽默发现没有性​​别或年龄差异,但妇女和老年注释者表明,她们比男性更频繁地理解笑话文本。我们讨论对计算幽默检测和下游任务的影响。

Computational humor detection systems rarely model the subjectivity of humor responses, or consider alternative reactions to humor - namely offense. We analyzed a large dataset of humor and offense ratings by male and female annotators of different age groups. We find that women link these two concepts more strongly than men, and they tend to give lower humor ratings and higher offense scores. We also find that the correlation between humor and offense increases with age. Although there were no gender or age differences in humor detection, women and older annotators signalled that they did not understand joke texts more often than men. We discuss implications for computational humor detection and downstream tasks.
