Description
The legclf_rights_agreement model is a Legal Longformer Document Classifier to classify if the document belongs to the class rights-agreement or not (Binary Classification).
Longformers have a restriction on 4096 tokens, so only the first 4096 tokens will be taken into account. We have realised that for the big majority of the documents in legal corpora, if they are clean and only contain the legal document without any extra information before, 4096 is enough to perform Document Classification.
If not, let us know and we can carry out another approach for you: getting chunks of 4096 tokens and average the embeddings, training with the averaged version, what means all document will be taken into account. But this theoretically should not be required.

.setInputCols(["document"])\
.setOutputCol("token")
embeddings = nlp.LongformerEmbeddings.pretrained("legal_longformer_base", "en")\

.setPoolingStrategy("AVERAGE")
doc_classifier = legal.ClassifierDLModel.pretrained("legclf_rights_agreement", "en", "legal/models")\

nlpPipeline = nlp.Pipeline(stages=[

df = spark.createDataFrame([["YOUR TEXT HERE"]]).toDF("text")
