ProMALex: Progressive Modular Adapters for Multi-Jurisdictional Legal Language Modeling (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to training language models for each jurisdiction fail to leverage common legal principles beneficial for low-resource settings or risk negative interference from conflicting jurisdictional interpretations. |
| Approach: | They propose a parameter-efficient framework that derives hierarchical relationships across jurisdictions and progressively inserts adapter modules across model layers based on jurisdictional similarity. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms fully shared and jurisdiction-specific models on two legal language modeling benchmarks. |
