Detecting sarcasm and verbal irony is critical for understanding people's actual sentiments and beliefs.Thus, the field of sarcasm analysis has become a popular research problem in natural language processing.As the community working on computational approaches for sarcasm detection is growing, it is imperative to conduct benchmarking studies to analyze the current state-of-the-art, facilitating progress in this area.We report on the shared task on sarcasm detection we conducted as a part of the 2nd Workshop on Figurative Language Processing (FigLang 2020) at ACL 2020.
