Streamlining Industrial Contract Management with Retrieval-Augmented LLMs

This work proposes a retrieval-augmented LLM pipeline that identifies and optimizes problematic contract revisions using synthetic data, semantic retrieval, and acceptability-based alignment.

Streamlining Industrial Contract Management with Retrieval-Augmented LLMs

We propose a retrieval-augmented LLM system that automatically identifies and rewrites problematic industrial contract revisions, achieving high accuracy even in low-resource legal settings.

GRAWA: Gradient-based Weighted Averaging for Distributed Training of Deep Learning Models

We introduce gradient-norm–weighted averaging methods for distributed deep learning that pull workers toward flatter regions of the loss landscape. The proposed model-level and layer-level variants converge in both convex and non-convex settings and empirically achieve faster training, better optima, and reduced communication compared to prior work.

Automatic Document Classification via Transformers for Regulations Compliance Management in Large Utility Companies

We propose an automated, bi-level document classification pipeline for regulatory text that first filters irrelevant documents using an ensemble of classical classifiers and then routes relevant documents to the appropriate departments using a transformer-based DocBERT model, significantly improving efficiency and accuracy over single-model approaches when evaluated on a large real-world corpus from Con Edison.
