Abstract

We propose a framework for a collaborative legal information retrieval system based on dynamic logic programming. In order to be collaborative our system keeps the context of the interaction and tries to infer the user intentions. Each event is represented by logic programming facts which are used to dynamically update the previous user model. User intentions are inferred from this new model and are the basis of the interaction between the system and the legal texts knowledge base. As legal texts knowledge base we are using the documents from the Portuguese Attorney General (Procuradoria Geral da República). In this paper we will show some examples of the obtained collaborative behaviour.
