religious minorities.
Eurovoc Multilabel Classifer
EuroVoc is a large multidisciplinary multilingual hierarchical thesaurus of more than 7000 classes covering the activities of EU institutions. Given the number of legal documents produced every day and the huge mass of pre-existing documents to be classified high quality automated or semi-automated classification methods are most welcome in this domain.
This model based on BERT Deep Neural Network was trained on more than 200,000 documents to achieve that task and is used in a production environment via the huggingface inference endpoint.
Architecture
7331 Eurovoc labels
Usage
from eurovoc import EurovocTagger
model = EurovocTagger.from_pretrained("EuropeanParliament/eurovoc_en")
