ASAIL

ASAIL brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers and practitioners that apply natural language processing and machine learning to the semantic analysis of legal texts. There is a long history of developing tools to aggregate, synthesize, structure, summarize, and reason about legal norms and arguments in texts. Recent advances in NLP, brought about by neural networks, has created new potential for technology supporting legal practice, research, argumentation, and decision making. At the same time, increasing demand for the ethical use of AI is fueling a debate about the requirements of such systems and motivates exploratory work on explainable legal AI.
