Contract Discovery: Dataset and a Few-Shot Semantic Retrieval Challenge with Competitive Baselines (to appear in Findings of EMNLP).
We proposed a new shared task of semantic retrieval from legal texts. A so-called contract discovery is to be performed – where legal clauses are extracted from documents, given a few examples of similar clauses from other legal acts. The task differs substantially from conventional NLI and shared tasks on legal information extraction (e.g., one has to identify text span instead of a single document, page, or paragraph).
The aim of this task is to identify spans in the requested documents (referred to as target documents) representing clauses analogous to the spans selected in other documents (referred to as seed documents).
The Semantic Retrieval Challenge directory contains a dataset in a form suitable for performing a repeated random sub-sampling validation procedure.
We release a large, cleaned, plain-text corpus of legal and financial texts for unsupervised model training or fine-tuning purposes. All the available documents of US EDGAR as for November 19, 2018, were crawled. The resulting corpus consists of approximately 1M documents and 2B words in total (1.5G of text after xz compression).
Besides, our GPT-1 and GPT-2 large models, fine-tuned on legal documents, are now publicly available. After unpacking, checkpoints can be loaded with Transformers library. Use them with default openai-gpt and gpt2-large tokenizers.
