Semi-automatic Triage of Requests for Free Legal Assistance
Free legal assistance is critically under-resourced, and many of those who seek legal help have their needs unmet. A major bottleneck in the provision of free legal assistance to those most in need is the determination of the precise nature of the legal problem. This paper describes a collaboration with a major provider of free legal assistance, and the deployment of natural language processing models to assign area-of-law categories to real-world requests for legal assistance. In particular, we focus on an investigation of models to generate efficiencies in the triage process, but also the risks associated with naive use of model predictions, including fairness across different user demographics.

Deterministic Fuzzy Triage for Legal Compliance Classification and Evidence Retrieval
Legal teams increasingly use machine learning to triage large volumes of contractual evidence, but many models are opaque, non-deterministic, and difficult to align with frameworks such as HIPAA or NERC-CIP. We study a s…
LEDGAR: A Large-Scale Multi-label Corpus for Text Classification of Legal Provisions in Contracts
We present LEDGAR, a multilabel corpus of legal provisions in contracts. The corpus was crawled and scraped from the public domain (SEC filings) and is, to the best of our knowledge, the first freely available corpus of …

Malware AnalysisSelective Annotation via Data Allocation: These Data Should Be Triaged to Experts for Annotation Rather Than the Model
To obtain high-quality annotations under limited budget, semi-automatic annotation methods are commonly used, where a portion of the data is annotated by experts and a model is then trained to complete the annotations fo…
