Description
The legclf_license_agreement model is a Longformer Document Classifier used to classify if the document belongs to the class license-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 your document needs to process more than 4096 tokens, you can try the following: getting chunks of 4096 tokens and average the embeddings, training with the averaged version, what means all document will be taken into account.

How to use
document_assembler = nlp.DocumentAssembler()\
.setInputCol("text")\
.setOutputCol("document")
tokenizer = nlp.Tokenizer()\
.setInputCols(["document"])\
.setOutputCol("token")
embeddings = nlp.LongformerEmbeddings.pretrained("legal_longformer_base", "en")\
.setInputCols("document", "token")\
.setOutputCol("embeddings")
sentence_embeddings = nlp.SentenceEmbeddings()\
.setInputCols(["document", "embeddings"])\
.setOutputCol("sentence_embeddings")\
.setPoolingStrategy("AVERAGE")
doc_classifier = legal.ClassifierDLModel.pretrained("legclf_license_agreement", "en", "legal/models")\
.setInputCols(["sentence_embeddings"])\
.setOutputCol("category")
nlpPipeline = nlp.Pipeline(stages=[
document_assembler,
tokenizer,
embeddings,
sentence_embeddings,
doc_classifier])
df = spark.createDataFrame([["YOUR TEXT HERE"]]).toDF("text")
model = nlpPipeline.fit(df)
result = model.transform(df)
