The JOKER Lab series at the Conference and Labs of
the Evaluation Forum (CLEF) was established in 2022 to promote collaborative,
interdisciplinary research on the automated processing of wordplay and verbal
humour. This paper provides an overview of the setup and results of the Lab's
2024 edition. We describe the data and evaluation metrics used for the Lab's
three shared tasks (on humour-aware information retrieval, humour
classification according to genre and technique, and translation of puns from
English to French) and introduce and compare the systems that participated in
each task, with particular attention to their approaches and
performance.
