چکیده

Various logical representations and frameworks have been proposed for reasoning with legal information. These approaches assume that the legal text has already been translated to the desired formal representation. However, the approaches for translating legal text into formal representations have mostly focused on inferring facts from text or translating it to a single representation. In this work, we use the NL2KR system to translate legal text into a wide variety of formal representations. This will enable the use of existing logical reasoning approaches on legal text(English), thus allowing reasoning with text.

Learning Semantic Correspondences in Technical Documentation

We consider the problem of translating high-level textual descriptions to formal representations in technical documentation as part of an effort to model the meaning of such documentation. We focus specifically on the problem of learning translational correspondences between text descriptions and grounded representations in the target documentation, such as formal representation of functions or...

iState: A Statechart Translator

We describe formal steps in the design of iState, a tool for translating statecharts into programming languages. Currently iState generates code in either Pascal, Java, or the Abstract Machine Notation of the B method. The translation proceeds in several phases. The focus of this paper is the formal description of the intermediate representations, for which we use class diagrams together with t...

Automatic Translation from Textual Representations of Laws to Formal Models through UML

A combination of UML and text mining, or more in general Information Extraction, can provide a valuable help to people involved in research about the linguistic structure of statutes, and, as a side effect, can be the seed for a new generation of applications in the legal domain. In particular, in this paper we present LexLooter, a prototype for amendments modelling and legislative text coordin...

Aligning Formal Meaning Representations with Surface Strings for Wide-Coverage Text Generation

Statistical natural language generation from abstract meaning representations presupposes large corpora consisting of text–meaning pairs. Even though such corpora exist nowadays, or could be constructed using robust semantic parsing, the simple alignment between text and meaning representation is too coarse for developing robust (statistical) NLG systems. By reformatting semantic representation...

Translating Legal Sentence by Segmentation and Rule Selection

A legal text usually long and complicated, it has some characteristic that make it different from other dailyuse texts.Then, translating a legal text is generally considered to be difficult. This paper introduces an approach to split a legal sentence based on its logical structure and presents selecting appropriate translation rules to improve phrase reordering of legal translation. We use a me...
