AI总结:

针对法律文本阅读理解面临的条款复杂和专家标注数据集短缺的挑战,本文提出了基于美国律师协会研究构建的专家标注数据集MAUD,包含超39,000个示例,微调Transformer基线表现优于随机但仍有改进空间,为法律界和NLP社区提供了宝贵基准。

摘要:

由于法律条款的长度和复杂性以及专家标注数据集的短缺,法律文本的阅读理解可能是一项极具挑战性的任务。为了应对这一挑战,我们引入了并购协议理解数据集(MAUD),这是一个专家标注的阅读理解数据集,基于美国律师协会2021年公开目标交易点研究,包含超过39,000个示例和超过47,000个总标注。我们微调的Transformer基线显示出有希望的结果,模型在大多数问题上的表现远高于随机水平。然而,在很大一部分问题上,仍有显著改进的空间。作为唯一专家标注的并购协议数据集,MAUD作为法律专业和NLP社区的基准非常有价值。

英文摘要:

Reading comprehension of legal text can be a particularly challenging task due to the length and complexity of legal clauses and a shortage of expert-annotated datasets. To address this challenge, we introduce the Merger Agreement Understanding Dataset (MAUD), an expert-annotated reading comprehension dataset based on the American Bar Association's 2021 Public Target Deal Points Study, with over 39,000 examples and over 47,000 total annotations. Our fine-tuned Transformer baselines show promising results, with models performing well above random on most questions. However, on a large subset of questions, there is still room for significant improvement. As the only expert-annotated merger agreement dataset, MAUD is valuable as a benchmark for both the legal profession and the NLP community.
