Enhancing BiGRU with a KAN Block for Legal Document Classification and Summarization

arXiv:2606.00116v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This study introduces a novel architecture of KAN-based BiGRU model for the task of classification and summarization of legal documents in a low-resource multilingual setup. In order to tackle problems associated with domain language, the usage of different languages, long dependencies within context, and class imbalance, we employ the dataset composed of legal documents from Bangladesh and taken from Manupatra, which include Bengali, English, and transliterated Bengali languages. Our classification task involves BiGRU model, along with Kolmogoro

Why this matters
Why now

The proliferation of AI models necessitates specialized approaches for low-resource languages and domain-specific challenges, driving innovation in fine-tuned architectures like KAN-based BiGRU.

Why it’s important

This research addresses the critical need for effective AI in legal domains and non-English languages, which are often underserved by mainstream models, unlocking new markets and improving access to legal tech.

What changes

The ability to accurately classify and summarize legal documents in multilingual, low-resource contexts improves, potentially lowering barriers to legal information access and automating legal workflows.

Winners
  • · Legal Tech Developers
  • · Law Firms in developing nations
  • · NLP researchers
  • · Judiciaries in multilingual regions
Losers
  • · Translators for legal documents
  • · Manual legal document review processes
Second-order effects
Direct

Improved efficiency in legal services and research, particularly in countries with diverse linguistic landscapes.

Second

Expansion of AI-powered legal services into new geographical and linguistic markets.

Third

Enhanced legal transparency and access to justice due to automated understanding and summarization of complex legal texts.
