Description for Artificial Intelligence and Legal Analytics: New Tools for Law Practice in the Digital Age
paperback. This book describes how text analytics and computational models of legal reasoning will improve legal IR and let computers help humans solve legal problems. Num Pages: 464 pages, 111 b/w illus. BIC Classification: LAS. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 228 x 152. .
The field of artificial intelligence (AI) and the law is on the cusp of a revolution that began with text analytic programs like IBM's Watson and Debater and the open-source information management architectures on which they are based. Today, new legal applications are beginning to appear and this book - designed to explain computational processes to non-programmers - describes how they will change the practice of law, specifically by connecting computational models of legal reasoning directly with legal text, generating arguments for and against particular outcomes, predicting outcomes and explaining these predictions with reasons that legal professionals will be able ...
