Meme captioning, the task of generating a sentence that describes the meaning of a meme, is both challenging and important in advancing Computational Meme Understanding (CMU). However, existing research has not explored its decomposition into subtasks or its connections to other CMU tasks. To addres
Automated meme understanding requires systems to demonstrate fine-grained visual recognition, commonsense reasoning, and extensive cultural knowledge. However, existing benchmarks for meme understanding only concern narrow aspects of meme semantics. To fill this gap, we present MemeQA, a dataset of…
Computational Meme Understanding, which concerns the automated comprehension of memes, has garnered interest over the last four years and is facing both substantial opportunities and challenges. We survey this emerging area of research by first introducing a comprehensive taxonomy for memes along th…
