摘要:
案例推理在多个法律场景中发挥着重要作用。本文聚焦于一种近期提出的案例推理方法,该方法由抽象论证的一种实例化形式所支持,其中论证表示案例,论证之间的攻击源于案例之间的结果分歧以及一种相关性概念。在此语境下,相关性与案例之间的一种具体性形式相关联。我们探索了如何借助决策树在实践中自动学习相关性,并研究了案例推理与抽象论证(AA-CBR)的结合以及案例相关性学习在法律场景预测中的应用。具体而言,我们表明,在两个法律数据集上,AA-CBR与基于决策树的案例相关性学习相比决策树具有竞争力。我们还表明,采用基于决策树的案例相关性学习的AA-CBR能够获得比其决策树对应方法更紧凑的表示,这可能有利于获得认知上可处理的解释。
英文摘要:
Case-based reasoning is known to play an important role in several legal settings. In this paper we focus on a recent approach to case-based reasoning, supported by an instantiation of abstract argumentation whereby arguments represent cases and attack between arguments results from outcome disagreement between cases and a notion of relevance. In this context, relevance is connected to a form of specificity among cases. We explore how relevance can be learnt automatically in practice with the help of decision trees, and explore the combination of case-based reasoning with abstract argumentation (AA-CBR) and learning of case relevance for prediction in legal settings. Specifically, we show that, for two legal datasets, AA-CBR and decision-tree-based learning of case relevance perform competitively in comparison with decision trees. We also show that AA-CBR with decision-tree-based learning of case relevance results in a more compact representation than their decision tree counterparts, which could be beneficial for obtaining cognitively tractable explanations.
