| Abstrakt: |
It was only in the first decade of the new century that the field of legal evidence became visible within artificial intelligence and the law (AI & Law), a thriving discipline that had developed during the previous three decades, from early concern with deontic logic to an array of both practical and theoretical approaches. In this article, we discuss a number of topics within computing for legal evidence. The average practitioner of knowledge-based systems will need no specialistic background knowledge in the legal domain, to benefit from this overview. The field is novel, yet a mass of research has already been published. It has not been previously organized in the manner presented here. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
