Artificial intelligence-based Legal Advisor (AILA) 🧑‍⚖️

AILA is a prototypical webapp for information retrieval (IR) and question answering (QA) in German legal documents.

Project philosophy

Legal systems form the foundation of democratic states. Nevertheless, it is nearly impossible for individuals to extract specific information from comprehensive legal documents. AILA takes first steps towards an AI-supported system for IR and QA in the German legal domain. Laypersons and legal professionals receive information supporting their research and decision-making by interacting with the architecture using a graphical interface. The internal language models are trained on our own annotated LegalSQuAD dataset, evaluating complex context-based search terms, considering German law-specific words and phrases.
