Theory and Practice in AI and Law: A Response to Branting
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we use our previous work which has examined the different levels involved in reasoning about legal cases to examine some challenges to the relevance of current theoretical work in AI and Law made by Branting. In our model we view the process of legal reasoning as being divided into three distinct but interconnected levels of reasoning. These levels involve a bottom layer concerning facts about the world, a top layer concerning legal consequences, and a layer connecting the two, with conclusions at lower levels acting as premises for higher levels. We use our model to explain Branting’s observations and show the relation with other strands of work from the AI and Law community.

1.0 Introduction Researchers in Artificial Intelligence and Law (AI & Law) have developed a number of computational models of case-based legal reasoning. For example, see Hypo (Ashley, 1987; 1990), CABARET (Rissland & Skalak, 1991), GREBE (Branting, 1991; 1999), CATO (Aleven, 1997; 2003), BankXX (Rissland, Skalak, et al. 1996), and Split-Up (Zeleznikow, Stranieri, et al., 1995-1996). The models...

The objective of this study was to consider effect of three different time of starting Ovsynch after Artificial Insemination, on synchrony parameters, pregnancy loss and fertility in Holstein cows. Multiparous cows (> 30 Kg/d, n = 450) randomly assigned to one of three groups. Groups according to time of starting Ovysnch were as follows: 1- Starting Ovsynch on day 25 after AI, 2- Starting Ovsyn...
