Extraction, and Evidentiary Reasoning for Law Enforcement and
Counter-Terrorism June 11, 2005 Bologna, Italy PDF
Abstract:
Name matching is an important task in law enforcement and
counter-terrorism. This paper briefly describes the nature of the
name-matching task, enumerates typical name-matching applications,
explains the technical challenges posed by name-matching, and sets
forth several important approaches to these technical challenges.

Abstract: The Third International
Conference on Case-Based Reasoning
was held at the Seeon Monastery, Bavaria, July 27-30, 1999. About 120
researchers from 21 countries attended. The conference included four
workshops, three invited talks, 24 technical presentations, a poster
session, and an Industry Day, where the focus was on mature
technologies and applications in industry.

Abstract: Identifying the open
research issues in a field is a
necessary step for progress in that field. This paper describes four
open research problems in computational models of precedent-based legal
reasoning: relating case representation to precedent use; modeling the
selection and construction of both arguments based on pairwise case
comparison and multiple-precedent arguments; modeling the process
whereby purposes, policies, and principles are used in case similarity
assessment; and extending the applicability of precedents to tasks
other than classification.
