用可视化工具解析法律论证中的模糊点,帮非专家看懂争议根源。
AF-XRAY: Visual Explanation and Resolution of Ambiguity in Legal Argumentation Frameworks
- 基于博弈论的分层可视化,揭示论证链条的合理性结构。
- 识别关键攻击集,通过暂停特定攻击解决未决论证问题。
- 支持法律解释性推理,展示不同假设如何导致不同结论。
论证框架(AFs)为法律推理提供形式化方法,但对非专家而言,识别模糊来源并解释论证接受性仍具挑战。我们提出 AF-XRAY,一个开源工具包,用于探索、分析和可视化法律推理中的抽象论证框架。该工具引入:(i) 基于博弈论论证长度的分层可视化,揭示合理推导结构;(ii) 按语义角色分类攻击边(主要、次要、错误);(iii) 在模糊三值稳定语义上叠加多组二值解的可视化;(iv) 识别关键攻击集,其暂停可解决未决论证。通过系统生成关键攻击集,AF-XRAY将模糊场景转化为有根基的解决方案,使用户能定位模糊成因并探索替代化解法。我们以真实法律案例(如 Bench-Capon 模拟的野生动物案)为例,证明该工具支持目的论法律推理,揭示不同假设如何导致不同正当结论。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Argumentation frameworks (AFs) provide formal approaches for legal reasoning, but identifying sources of ambiguity and explaining argument acceptance remains challenging for non-experts. We present AF-XRAY, an open-source toolkit for exploring, analyzing, and visualizing abstract AFs in legal reasoning. AF-XRAY introduces: (i) layered visualizations based on game-theoretic argument length revealing well-founded derivation structures; (ii) classification of attack edges by semantic roles (primary, secondary, blunders); (iii) overlay visualizations of alternative 2-valued solutions on ambiguous 3-valued grounded semantics; and (iv) identification of critical attack sets whose suspension resolves undecided arguments. Through systematic generation of critical attack sets, AF-XRAY transforms ambiguous scenarios into grounded solutions, enabling users to pinpoint specific causes of ambiguity and explore alternative resolutions. We use real-world legal cases (e.g., Wild Animals as modeled by Bench-Capon) to show that our tool supports teleological legal reasoning by revealing how different assumptions lead to different justified conclusions.
