[...] "Argumentation is key to understanding and evaluating many texts. The arguments in the texts must be identified; using current tools, this requires substantial work from human analysts. With a rule-based tool for semi-automatic text analysis support, we facilitate argument identification. The tool highlights potential argumentative sections of a text according to terms indicative of arguments (e.g. suppose or therefore) and domain terminology (e.g. camera names and properties). The information can be used by an analyst to instantiate argumentation schemes and build arguments for and against a proposal. The resulting argumentation framework can then be passed to argument evaluation tools." [...]

Comment on Workshop Applying Human Language Technology to the Law by Applying text analytics to product innovation and legal cases « Information Interaction

Fri, 25 Mar 2011 11:35:05 +0000

[...] First up was Adam Wyner of Liverpool University, who described his work in applying text analytics to legal cases. Lawyers, it seems, are very text-oriented in their work, and much of their activity is based on the interpretation of legal precedent established through analysis of previous cases. This analysis takes the form of comparison based on a variety of legal factors, which are used in the argumentation and reasoning underpinning a given case. Clearly, if tools could be provided to reliably extract or identify such factors in natural language text, then the potential for facilitating the legal process (and providing tools for trainee lawyers) is considerable. Adam’s approach is based on a bottom-up process that identifies patterns of co-occurrence of specific legal concepts and terms, which are then mapped onto a taxonomy of 27 base-level factors. He’ll be talking more about this at the upcoming ICAIL workshop on Applying Human Language Technologies to the Law. [...]
