🧠 LawSight – IPC Section Matcher (BERT-based)

This model is part of LawSight – an AI-powered legal assistance tool designed to suggest applicable Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections based on user complaints.

It uses BERT embeddings and a fine-tuned classification head to intelligently match free-form complaint descriptions with relevant IPC sections.

📌 Use Cases

👮 Law enforcement automation
⚖️ Legal aid applications
📚 Legal NLP research
🧾 FIR assistance & section classification

🚀 Model Details

Architecture: BERT (base model) with a custom classification head
Input: Complaint text in English
Output: One or more IPC section numbers with confidence scores
Fine-Tuned On: Custom dataset of IPC-tagged complaints
Multilingual Support: Input preprocessed using translation for multilingual capabilities

🔧 How to Use

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification
import torch

# Load model
model_name = "ri2000/IPC_matcher"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(model_name)

# Sample input
complaint = "A man forcefully entered my house and tried to harm me."

# Tokenize
inputs = tokenizer(complaint, return_tensors="pt", truncation=True, padding=True)

# Predict
outputs = model(**inputs)
logits = outputs.logits
predicted = torch.argmax(logits, dim=1)

# Show result
print(f"Predicted IPC Section ID: {predicted.item()}")
