### Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
Greek_Legal_Code (GLC) is a dataset consisting of approx. 47k legal resources from Greek legislation. The origin of GLC is “Permanent Greek Legislation Code - Raptarchis”, a collection of Greek legislative documents classified into multi-level (from broader to more specialized) categories. |
|
|
|
**Topics** |
|
|
|
GLC consists of 47 legislative volumes and each volume corresponds to a main thematic topic. Each volume is divided into thematic sub categories which are called chapters and subsequently, each chapter breaks down to subjects which contain the legal resources. The total number of chapters is 389 while the total number of subjects is 2285, creating an interlinked thematic hierarchy. So, for the upper thematic level (volume) GLC has 47 classes. For the next thematic level (chapter) GLC offers 389 classes and for the inner and last thematic level (subject), GLC has 2285 classes. |
|
|
|
GLC classes are divided into three categories for each thematic level: frequent classes, which occur in more than 10 training documents and can be found in all three subsets (training, development and test); few-shot classes which appear in 1 to 10 training documents and also appear in the documents of the development and test sets, and zero-shot classes which appear in the development and/or test, but not in the training documents. |
|
|
|
|
|
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards |
|
|
|
The dataset supports: |
|
|
|
**Multi-class Text Classification:** Given the text of a document, a model predicts the corresponding class. |
|
|
|
**Few-shot and Zero-shot learning:** As already noted, the classes can be divided into three groups: frequent, few-shot, and zero- shot, depending on whether they were assigned to more than 10, fewer than 10 but at least one, or no training documents, respectively. |
|
|
|
| Level | Total | Frequent | Few-Shot (<10) | Zero-Shot | |
|
|---|---|---|---|---| |
|
|Volume|47|47|0|0| |
|
|Chapter|389|333|53|3| |
|
|Subject|2285|712|1431|142| |
|
|
|
### Languages |
|
|
|

The labels can also be a the chapter-level or subject-level class it belongs to. Some chapter labels are omitted due to size (389 classes). Some subject labels are also omitted due to size (2285 classes). |

## Dataset Creation |
|
|
|
### Curation Rationale |
|
|
|
The dataset was curated by Papaloukas et al. (2021) with the hope to support and encourage further research in NLP for the Greek language. |
|
|
|
### Source Data |
|
|
|
#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization |
|
|
|
The ``Permanent Greek Legislation Code - Raptarchis`` is a thorough catalogue of Greek legislation since the creation of the Greek state in 1834 until 2015. It includes Laws, Royal and Presidential Decrees, Regulations and Decisions, retrieved from the Official Government Gazette, where Greek legislation is published. This collection is one of the official, publicly available sources of classified Greek legislation suitable for classification tasks. |
|
|
|
Currently, the original catalogue is publicly offered in MS Word (.doc) format through the portal e-Themis, the legal database and management service of it, under the administration of the Ministry of the Interior (Affairs). E-Themis is primarily focused on providing legislation on a multitude of predefined thematic categories, as described in the catalogue. The main goal is to help users find legislation of interest using the thematic index. |
