ICAIL 2013: The Fourteenth International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Law

ICAIL 2013: The Fourteenth International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Law Abstract The 14th International Conference on AI and Law (ICAIL 2013) was held in Rome, Italy, June 10-14, 2013. The 14th International Conference on AI and Law (ICAIL 2013) was held in Rome, Italy, June 10-14, 2013.

In order to emphasize the importance of implemented systems for the field, we also called for system demonstrations; 7 were accepted for the conference, 1 of them associated with a research abstract and 6 of them described in a demonstration extended abstract. At this edition of ICAIL, the Donald H. Berman best student paper award was won by Tran Thi Oanh (Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology; JAIST) for the paper entitled "Reference Resolution in Legal Texts" that she wrote with Minh Le Nguyen and Akira Shimazu. Traditionally, ICAIL hosts a lively and varied program of tutorials and workshops. At this conference, there were tutorials covering an introduction to artificial intelligence and law, web ontology and data design, LegalRuleML, and textual information extraction. There were workshops on argumentation, coherence, open and smart data, evidence, e-discovery, e-justice, and network analysis. Also, the international workshop series, Computational Models of Natural Argument, joined ICAIL for its 13th edition (CMNA XIII). The conference was held under the auspices of the Senate of the Italian Republic with as hosting institution the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (National Research Council of Italy), central unit in Rome. Both AAAI and ACM SIGART were in cooperation. Conference officials were Bart Verheij (program chair), Enrico Francesconi (conference chair), and Anne Gardner (secretary/treasurer).
