What are the main categories and how are they filled in?
- The main categories of the Resource Centre
- Name of the system in English and native language
- Main field of application
-
- Document search, review and Large-scale Discovery
These solutions create a searchable collection of case
-
- Online Dispute Resolution
These solutions cover technologies used for the resolution of disputes between parties with limited human intervention, which can be achieved through hardware and/or software. It concerns mainly Alternative Dispute Resolution, but also dispute resolution in the context of courts.
-
- Prediction of Litigation Outcomes
These solutions learn from large datasets to identify patterns in the data that are consequently used to visualise, simulate or predict new litigation outcomes.
-
- Decision Support
These solutions facilitate or automate stages in the decision-making processes in the justice systems. So far, there have been no reports of fully automated decision-making process without any human supervision. Examples include systems summarising texts, extracting specific information in applications, calculating scales for sentencing and compensation.
-
- Anonymisation and Pseudonymisation
These solutions are used for removing and replacing identifying information such as personal data of court users in judgments.
-
- E-Filing
These technological solutions facilitate access to justice by establishing a digital channel that enables the interaction and exchange of data and e-documents between courts and court users.
-
- Triaging, allocation and workflow automation
These solutions are used to facilitate or complete some tasks and activities during the lifecycle of the proceedings within the Case Management System, minimising the need for human input. Examples are: registration and allocation of court matters, assigning levels of priority to tasks or individuals to determine the most effective order in which to deal with them.
-
- Transcription and translation
These solutions are capable of recognising and analysing speech as well as written text and communicating back. Their main use for courts is in voice/speech recognition and transcription of court procee
-
- Information and assistance services
These solutions provide individuals with information on services available in the justice systems and link individuals to the services and opportunities that are available. Examples are chatbots or other interfaces accessible for the public.
