ICAIL 2013: The fourteenth international conference on artificial intelligence and law

The research fields of artificial intelligence and of law have met and have merged into the interdisciplinary research field of artificial intelligence and law. Both fields use formal methods, with their strengths and limitations; in AI there are software, logic, and statistics, in law there are statutes, procedures, and institutions. Researchers are taking their inspiration from the law with its insights developed over millennia combining them with AI's half a century of lessons. 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. Further information about the conference is available at icail2013.ittig.cnr.it. The proceedings were published by the Association for Computing Machinery and are available in the ACM Digital Library.
