Web-search queries are typically short and ambiguous. To classify these queries into certain target categories is a difficult but important problem. In this article, we present a new technique called query enrichment, which takes a short query and maps it to intermediate objects. Based on the collected intermediate objects, the query is then mapped to target categories. To build the necessary mapping functions, we use an ensemble of search engines to produce an enrichment of the queries. Our...

Browsing big legal databases has become a part of daily work activity in an almost every modern law o ce. Legal regulations change more often than it was in the past and to re- main up-to-date, one must use electronic media collections for help. The problem is that most popular databases take queries in formal query languages (e.g. SQL), which can be di cult for the casual database user. This project tries to determine, how the lawyers can be helped by providing natural language interface to...

Legal information is often accessible via portal web sites. Legal documents typically combine structured and unstructured information, the former being tagged with markup languages such as XML (Extensible Markup Language). Current information retrieval research takes into account the structured information content of documents when computing the relevance ranking. Such an approach is very promising for the retrieval of legal documents. This is illustrated with two retrieval models specifically designed for the retrieval of legislation.

Professor Peoples reports the results of a study finding that the opinions and performance of modern legal researchers do not support the traditional notion that print digests are the tool of choice for researching legal rules while electronic databases are best suited for finding cases discussing unique factual situations. Tomorrow's lawyers are unaware of some common shortcomings of electronic research and do not possess the strategies to compensate for them. Law librarians must become...

Cette étude expose à partir de l’exemple de la banque de données Juris-Data la logique qui préside à la conception et à la constitution des fichiers de données juridiques – décisions de tribunaux et données issues de revues spécialisées – et analyse les effets de ce traitement d’information sur la production doctrinale. Elle démontre que, en collectant, sélectionnant et traitant les données essentielles, puis en facilitant leur repérage, l’informatique juridique documentaire participe à...

The creation of a law classification schedule at the Library of Congress has been under development since the late 1930s and has continued to the present. The law schedules have been published over the past thirty-five years. Class K delineates all laws and legal systems on global, regional, and jurisdictional levels and provides links between historical and religious systems as well. This article also discusses historical and political aspects of the development of law classification.

Legislative databases are a well-established information source for the legal professional. However, current legislative databases struggle with important problems. The manual updating of the texts and their reference data that are necessary for an effective consultation of the databases is very expensive and does not always guarantee the correctness of the retrieved texts. These findings are based upon the experience with the Agora-Lex project, which has developed a model and prototype for...

The study reported in this paper is part of a programme of ongoing research based on the model of the Information Search Process (ISP) developed in a series of prior studies by Kuhlthau. This study sought to gain a better understanding of the variety of tasks that involve lawyers as a particular group of information workers, how they use information to accomplish their work, and the role mediators play in their process of information seeking and use. Findings revealed that these lawyers...

To put it mildly, use of the Internet for legal research has proliferated. In addition, many reference librarians who wish to supplement LEXIS-NEXIS, CIS Academic Universe, Westlaw, and other commercial legal resources are turning to freely-available Web-based legal resources for the sake of comprehensiveness and cost savings. With this as background, the Idaho State University Reference Division staff surveyed the significant and freely available legal sites on the Web. They used Academic...

Dans ce travail nous proposons un système permettant de construire et de maintenir le contexte des interactions dans une interface web, pour des bases de données juridiques. Nous utilisons certains résultats du projet AustLIl (Australasian Lega Information Institute), un système d'inférence via le World Wide Web pour des bases de données juridiques. En particulier, nous nous servons de SINO, un moteur de recherche pour bases de données juridique (Greenleaf, Mowbray and King 1997)....

Les ontologies jouent un rôle important dans la création des systèmes d'informations juridiques, car elles permettent de définir la structure de la base de connaissance en construction. Les différences que l'on constate entre ontologies reflètent les différences dans les tâches, les méthodes et le domaine. Une application particulière rend certaines ontologies mieux adaptées que d'autres. Une bibliothèque regroupant de telles ontologies pourrait grandement contribuer au développement de...
