[Satoshi Tojo]

Apologies if you receive this CFP multiple times.
--------------------------------------------
!!Deadline Extention!!
Due to many requests, we will extend the deadline for Eighth
International Workshop on Juris-informatics
(JURISIN 2014). New Submission Deadline: September 17, 2014

Conference date: November 23 - 24, 2014
venue: Raiosha Building, Keio University Kanagawa, Japan

Aims and Scope

Juris-informatics is a new research area which studies legal issues
from the perspective of informatics. The purpose of this workshop is
to discuss both the fundamental and practical issues among people from
the various backgrounds such as law, social science, information and
intelligent technology, logic and philosophy, including the
conventional "AI and law" area. We solicit unpublished papers on
theories, technologies and applications on juris-informatics.

Topics

Relevant topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

    Model of legal reasoning
    Argumentation / Negotiation / Argumentation agent
    Legal term ontology
    Formal legal knowledge-base / Intelligent management of legal knowledge-base
    Translation of legal documents
    Information retrieval of legal texts
    Computer-aided law education
    Use of Informatics and AI in law
    Legal issues on ubiquitous computing / multi-agent system / the Internet
    Social implications of use of informatics and AI in law
    Natural language processing for legal knowledge
    Verification and validation of legal knowledge systems
    Any theories and technologies which is not directly related with
juris-informatics but has a potential to contribute to this domain

Bar Exam Competition

This year, JURISIN invites participation in a legal information
extraction and entailment competition. Previous conferences/workshops
have not conducted such a shared task on a large legal data
collection, so we hope that the 2014 workshop will help establish a
major experimental effort in the legal information
extraction/retrieval field. The motivation for the competition is to
help create a research community of practice for the capture and use
of legal information.

Submissions: the submission site via EasyChair is now open.

We welcome and encourage the submission of high quality, original
papers, which are not simultaneously submitted for publication
elsewhere except as a submission to JURIX 2014 (The 27th International
Conference on Legal Knowledge and Information Systems). The double
submission policy with JURIX 2014 is as follows:

    Papers being submitted both to JURISIN2014 and JURIX2014 must note
this on the title page.
    A paper to be presented at JURISIN2014 must be withdrawn from
JURIX2014 and vice versa according to the choice by the authors.
    If the authors do not follow this double submission policy, the
paper by the authors will not be included in the proceedings of
JURISIN 2014.

Post Proceedings: Selected papers will be published via Springer
Verlag LNAI. In addition, the authors have an opportunity to submit
their full versions to the special issue of Journal of New Generation
Computing. The detail will be announced soon.
