CAIL2018: A Large-Scale Legal Dataset for Judgment Prediction


الملخص بالإنكليزية

In this paper, we introduce the textbf{C}hinese textbf{AI} and textbf{L}aw challenge dataset (CAIL2018), the first large-scale Chinese legal dataset for judgment prediction. dataset contains more than $2.6$ million criminal cases published by the Supreme Peoples Court of China, which are several times larger than other datasets in existing works on judgment prediction. Moreover, the annotations of judgment results are more detailed and rich. It consists of applicable law articles, charges, and prison terms, which are expected to be inferred according to the fact descriptions of cases. For comparison, we implement several conventional text classification baselines for judgment prediction and experimental results show that it is still a challenge for current models to predict the judgment results of legal cases, especially on prison terms. To help the researchers make improvements on legal judgment prediction, both dataset and baselines will be released after the CAIL competitionfootnote{http://cail.cipsc.org.cn/}.
