Towards Semantic Interpretation of Legal Modifications through Deep Syntactic Analysis

We are concerned with the automatic semantic interpretation of legal modificatory provisions. We propose a novel approach which pairs deep syntactic parsing and a fine-grained taxonomy of legal modifications. Although still in a developmental stage, the implemented system can be used to annotate with metainformation modificatory provisions of NormaInRete documents. Keywords. Legal documents semantics, natural language processing, automatic information extraction.
