Applying Deep Neural Network to Retrieve Relevant Civil Law Articles

Anh Hang Nga Tran


Abstract
The paper aims to achieve the legal question answering information retrieval (IR) task at Competition on Legal Information Extraction/Entailment (COLIEE) 2017. Our proposal methodology for the task is to utilize deep neural network, natural language processing and word2vec. The system was evaluated using training and testing data from the competition on legal information extraction/entailment (COLIEE). Our system mainly focuses on giving relevant civil law articles for given bar exams. The corpus of legal questions is drawn from Japanese Legal Bar exam queries. We implemented a combined deep neural network with additional features NLP and word2vec to gain the corresponding civil law articles based on a given bar exam ‘Yes/No’ questions. This paper focuses on clustering words-with-relation in order to acquire relevant civil law articles. All evaluation processes were done on the COLIEE 2017 training and test data set. The experimental result shows a very promising result.
