  • Translation of legal documents
  • Computer-aided law education
  • Use of Informatics and AI in law
  • Legal issues on ubiquitous computing / multi-agent system / the Internet
  • Social implications of use of informatics and AI in law
  • Natural language processing for legal knowledge
  • Verification and validation of legal knowledge systems
  • Online dispute resolution
  • AI and intellectual property
  • Computer aided legal education
  • Legal data mining
  • Legal document analysis
  • Legal information retrieval
  • Legal information extraction
  • Evidential reasoning
  • AI application to forensics
  • AI application to smart contracts and blockchain
  • Legislation support by AI/IT techniques
  • Any theories and technologies which is not directly related with
    juris-informatics but has a potential to contribute to this domain
