# Legal-CamemBERT-base
This is a [CamemBERT-base](https://huggingface.co/camembert-base) model further pre-trained on 22,000+ legal articles from the Belgian legislation in French.
## Usage
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("maastrichtlawtech/legal-camembert-base")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("maastrichtlawtech/legal-camembert-base")
```
## Training
#### Background
We utilize the [camembert-base](https://huggingface.co/camembert-base) checkpoint and further pre-train it with a masked language modeling (MLM) objective on legislation in French using the [script](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/examples/pytorch/language-modeling/run_mlm.py) from Hugging Face.
#### Hyperparameters
We train the model on a single Tesla V100 GPU with 32GBs of memory during 200 epochs (i.e., ~50k steps) using a batch size of 32. We use the AdamW optimizer with an initial learning rate of 5e-05, weight decay of 0.01, learning rate warmup over the first 500 steps, and linear decay of the learning rate. The sequence length was limited to 512 tokens.
#### Data
We use the [Belgian Statutory Article Retrieval Dataset (BSARD)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/maastrichtlawtech/bsard) to further pre-train the model. BSARD is a French native dataset for studying legal information retrieval that includes more than 22,600 statutory articles from the Belgian legislation.
