ABSTRACT
This work falls within the field of Model-Based Legal Information Retrieval. We were brought to conceive new types of interfaces after having evaluated a legal database available on the Internet. Although legally validated, this legal database JURISQUE-1 was considered as unsuitable to the expertise's necessities of mountains' professionals (whether legal practitioners or not) working on practical issues of responsibility in cases of avalanches. We thus proposed to develop cognitive interfaces which have the peculiarity to integrate a model of the field into the management of various resources (software packages or knowledge) and ensure that they communicate with one another.

Improving legal quality: an application report
ICAIL '03: Proceedings of the 9th international conference on Artificial intelligence and lawProblems with legal quality will not only increase effort and costs of the law enforcement organisations, but also undermines the regulating power of the legislator. Unintended use or even abuse of the law may be the result. Governments therefore should ...
Identification of implicit legal requirements with legal abstract knowledge
ICAIL '93: Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Artificial intelligence and lawIn order to acquire legal rules from legal texts, legal requirements and legal effects must be identified. However, some of legal requirements are expressed implicitly. Such implicit legal requirements can be found by lawyers when they understand legal ...
Can legal knowledge be derived from legal texts?
ICAIL '93: Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Artificial intelligence and lawKnowledge acquisition is undoubtedly one of the major bottle-necks in the development of legal expert systems. Usually the knowledge is collected by knowledge engineers who are forced to make their own interpretations of the knowledge in order to map it ...
