Klappentext This book describes how text analytics and computational models of legal reasoning will improve legal IR and let computers help humans solve legal problems. Zusammenfassung The field of artificial intelligence (AI) and the law is on the cusp of a revolution. This book - designed to explain computational processes to non-programmers - describes how text analytic programs will change the practice of law! specifically by connecting computational models of legal reasoning directly with legal text.
