Legal Natural Language Inference (NLI) Task

Context:
- It can be based on a Legal NLI Benchmark Task.
- ...
Example(s):
- a Legal Contract NLI Task, such as:
  - a CUAD Benchmark Task, (Hendrycks et al., 2021).
  - a ContractNLI Benchmark Task, (Koreeda & Manning, 2021).
- ...
Counter-Example(s):
- Medical NLI Task, over a medical corpus.
- Biomedical NLI Task, over biomedical corpus.

- ABSTRACT: Reviewing contracts is a time-consuming procedure that incurs large expenses to companies and social inequality to those who cannot afford it. In this work, we propose "document-level natural language inference (NLI) for contracts", a novel, real-world application of NLI that addresses such problems. ...

- ABSTRACT: Many specialized domains remain untouched by deep learning, as large labeled datasets require expensive expert annotators. We address this bottleneck within the legal domain by introducing the Contract Understanding Atticus Dataset (CUAD), a new dataset for legal contract review. ...
