Text-based Legal Ontology Enrichment
نویسنده
چکیده
The acquisition of knowledge from text is an incomplete and incremental process. When anchored to a particular knowledge model it provides potentially useful information to the legal expert in the form of new concepts and relations, in order to improve the domain coverage. This paper explores the feasibility of various legal text-based ontology enrichment techniques, and discusses the transformation of lexical knowledge to an ontological structure.

Semantic Enrichment of a Web Legal Information Retrieval System
Intelligent text information retrieval systems need the capability to deal with the semantics of the content of their text bases. In order to satisfy this requisite it is necessary to extract semantic information from the documents and to be able to make inferences about it. A methodology to semi-automatically transform a traditional web IR system into a semantic aware one is proposed. The meth...
متن کاملOMTAT Annotation Tool: Semantical Enrichment for Legal Document Search
This paper describes a help system for legal document searching. The proposed approach relies on creating specific annotations over a corpus of documents. A tool has been built which implements the visualization of annotations, texts and semantic resources, the creation of annotations and their collation in resources. A search engine has been implemented as well to query the set of annotated do...
متن کاملText-Based Ontology Enrichment Using Hierarchical Self-organizing Maps
The success of the Semantic Web research is dependent upon the construction of complete and reliable domain ontologies. In this paper we describe an unsupervised framework for domain ontology enrichment based on mining domain text corpora. Specifically, we enrich the hierarchical backbone of an existing ontology, i.e. its taxonomy, with new domain-specific concepts. The framework is based on an...
متن کاملOntology-driven Generation of Training Paths in the Legal Domain
This paper presents a methodology for helping citizens obtain guidance and training when submitting a natural language description of a legal case they are interested in. This is done via an automatic mechanism, which firstly extracts relevant legal concepts from the given textual description, by relying upon an underlying legal ontology built for such a purpose and an enrichment process based ...
