Enhancement of Bag-of-Words for Legal documents using Legal Statute

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 4

Abstract

Abstract: In this paper Legal statute related to dowry acts has been processed to obtain a distinct set of legal keywords which don’t have a common occurrence in day to day dowry case judgments. This effort coupled with the knowledge of legal expert would give a very much broadened scope for the BoW. These keywords are veryrich in concept and well connected to the domain of dowry acts. The earlier work [22] constructed BoW for dowry case notes of judgments. Current work tries to improve the BoW by widening the scope of dowry related cases. This enriches the Bag-of-Words with high probability legal terms taking precedence over low probabilitynon-legal terms. The enriched BoW set when put through any of the similarity measures or machine learning techniques is bound to give better results when compared to earlier BoW[22].
