Cette thèse a pour objectif la détection du langage figuratif dans les réseaux sociaux. Nous nous focalisons en particulier sur l'ironie et le sarcasme dans Twitter et proposons une approche basée sur l'apprentissage supervisée afin de prédire si le message véhiculé dans un tweet est ironique ou non. Pour ce faire, trois étapes ont été réalisées : (1) Analyse des phénomènes pragmatiques de l'ironie et annotation multi-niveaux d'un corpus de référence, (2) Développement d'un modèle de détection automatique pour les tweets en français qui exploite à la fois des traits sémantiques et le contexte extralinguistique, (3) Etude de la portabilité du modèle pour la détection de l'ironie dans un cadre multilingue (italien, anglais et arabe). Les résultats obtenus pour cette tâche extrêmement complexe sont très encourageants et permettrons d'améliorer sensiblement la détection de polarité lors de l'analyse de sentiments. / This thesis aims to detect figurative language devices in social networks. We focus in particular on irony and sarcasm in Twitter and propose an approach based on supervised learning to predict if a tweet is ironic or not. This required three steps: (1) Analyze the pragmatic phenomena of irony and a multi-level annotation of a corpus of reference, (2) Development of an automatic detection system for French tweets that exploits both semantic features and the extra-linguistic context, (3) Study of the portability of the model to detect irony in a multilingual setting (Italian, English and Arabic). The obtained results for this extremely complex task are very encouraging and will allow a significant improvement of polarity detection in sentiments analysis.

Irony is a widely used device which plays a large role not only in conversation, but also has impacts on our daily thoughts. In literature, the device of irony has been used in the past and it is still being used by writers today so that readers can think deeply on the presented topic and understand the message and the intended concept. Wamitila (2008: 409) finds that irony is among the many devices which facilitate our conversations, mostly with its capability of indirectly revealing our hidden feelings, views and perspectives. According to Mbatiah (2001: 27) irony is a concept used in speech which can cause a painful realization. This article discusses the methodologies and different strategies applied in the use of irony within Kiswahili literature. The main argument within the article is that irony can cause the reader to indirectly recognize a deeper meaning within the text. The basic assertion in this article is to highlight how irony has played a large role within Kiswahili literature before independence, after independence, within the Arusha Declaration, and up until this time of globalization. / Kejeli ni mbinu pana, ambayo huchukua nafasi kubwa na kutoa mchango wake si katika mazungumzo tu bali pia katika utoaji wa awazo yetu ya kila siku. Katika fasihi, mbinu ya kejeli imetumiwa na inaendelea kutumiwa na waandishi ili kuiwezesha hadhira/wasomaji wafikirie kwa undani suala linaloongelewa ili waweze kupata ujumbe uliokusudiwa kufikishwa kwao. Wamitila (2008: 409) anasema kuwa, kejeli ni mojawapo ya mbinu zinazotawala maongezi yetu hasa kutokana na uwezo wake wa kuficha hisia, maoni na mitazamo yetu sahihi. Kwa maoni ya Mbatiah (2001: 27), kejeli ni maneno yanayotumiwa katika matamshi kama hayo huwa ni ya kuchoma, kukata na kutia uchungu. Makala haya yanajadili kwa kina njia na mbinu mbalimbali zilizotumika katika kutumia kejeli katika fasihi ya Kiswahili. Mbinu inayoongoza makala ni ile inayoitambua kejeli katika hali ambapo kuna kinyume na Fulani katika usemi, hali au tukio. Suala la msingi katika makala haya ni kuonyesha jinsi mbinu ya kejeli ilivyooneshwa katika Kiswahili kuanzia kabla ya uhuru, baada ya uhuru, azimio la Arusha hadi wakati huu wa utandawazi kumeisaidia kwa kiasi gani jamii ya Kitanzania.
