Legal idioms: a framework for evidential reasoning
How do people make legal judgments based on complex bodies of interrelated evidence? This paper outlines a novel framework for evidential reasoning using causal idioms. These idioms are based on the qualitative graphical component of Bayesian networks, and are tailored to the legal context. They can be combined and reused to model complex bodies of legal evidence. This approach is applied to wi...
متن کاملA Framework for Evidential-Reasoning Systems

متن کاملAn Evidential Reasoning Framework for Object Tracking
Object tracking consists of reconstructing the configuration of an articulated body from a sequence of images provided by one or more cameras. In this paper we present a general method for pose estimation based on the evidential reasoning. The proposed framework integrates different levels of description of the object to improve robustness and precision, overcoming the limitations of approaches...
متن کاملA Framework for Open Mechanized Legal Reasoning
We build on the analogy between theorem proving and legal reasoning. In the former case it was shown that mechanized reasoning is always achieved provided there is a theory, a control on this theory and some rules governing this controlled theory once introduced in a given environment. We show that it is possible to identify similar conditions for cognitive systems and also in the legal world. ...
متن کاملA group evidential reasoning approach for enterprise architecture framework selection

Several methods have been proposed for selecting suitable frameworks. Although these methods are useful, none of them captures the uncertainties inherent in multi-attribute framework selection problems that embrace b...
