Dear Colleagues:
Selected papers presented at next May's workshop on "Artificial
Intelligence and Legal Evidence" will be published by the new journal
"Law, Probability and Risk: A Journal of Reasoning under Uncertainty"
(Oxford University Press). The papers will be subjected to peer review.
They will very probably be published in the second quarterly issue of
the journal, in 2002. This workshop is being held under the auspices of
The 8th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Law, May
21-25, 2001 (ICAIL-2001). The official workshop web page may be found at
http://www.cs.uu.nl/people/henry/workshop2.html Papers and all other
submissions should be sent to the chair of the workshop, Ron Shapira, at
Shapira@mail.biu.ac.il
The workshop is meant is to be collegial and informal. Those persons who
are curious about AI (sometimes called "computational intelligence") --
as well those who profess to know something about AI -- are warmly
invited to attend. If you wish only to participate or attend (and you
do not wish to submit a paper or a position statement and you do not
wish to "demo" your system), you are encouraged to submit a "statement
of interest" to Prof. Ron Shapira at Shapira@mail.biu.ac.il
The workshop will take place on either May 21 or May 25.
Sincerely yours,
Peter Tillers
P.S. This is a convenient time to announce that additional papers on
"artificial intelligence and judicial proof" will be published in 22
Cardozo L. Rev. Nos. 5 & 6 (forthcoming May 2001). The contributors to
this double issue include Glenn Shafer, Zdzislaw Pawlak, David Poole,
Ron Allen, John Josephson, Pek van Andel, Melanie Leslie, Johan van
Benthem, Daničle Bourcier, Marianne Belis, Kola Abimbola, Marilyn
MacCrimmon, Ron Howard, Ward Edwards, Dave Schum, Paolo Garbolino, Craig
Callen, Tod Levitt, Kathy Laskey, John Barnden, Donald Peterson, Ron
Shapira, Vern Walker, and Paul Snow. (Please forgive me if I have
omitted anyone's name.)
The papers in this double symposium issue and yet some more papers (by,
e.g., Lotfi Zadeh and Giovanni Sartor) will be published by Springer
Verlag under the title THE DYNAMICS OF JUDICIAL PROOF: COMPUTATION,
LOGIC & COMMON SENSE (Marilyn MacCrimmon & Peter Tillers, eds.,
forthcoming 2001 or 2002).
Thank you for your attention.
