Non-factoid Question Answering in the Legal Domain
Non-factoid question answering in the legal domain must provide legally correct, jurisdictionally relevant, and conversationally responsive answers to user-entered questions. We present work done on a QA system that is entirely based on IR and NLP, and does not rely on a structured knowledge base. Our system retrieves concise one-sentence answers for basic questions about the law. It is not restricted in scope to particular topics or jurisdictions. The corpus of potential answers contains approximately 22M documents classified to over 120K legal topics.
