Interpretable Rationale Augmented Charge Prediction System (C18-2)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies treat charge prediction as a text classification problem, but in the field of justice, every decision may be a matter of life and death. |
| Approach: | They propose to extract readable rationales from text and then create a rationale augmented classification model to enhance the prediction accuracy. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system can extract readable rationales in a high consistency with manual annotation and is comparable with the attention model in prediction accuracy. |
