Interests
My research interests in
Learning, Law and Computer Science are to:
(1) develop
computational models of case‑based reasoning (CBR) in domains like law
and practical ethics as an intellectual methodology for better
understanding
comparative evaluation with cases and principles and as a basis for
intelligent
computer systems to educate students and assist practitioners;
(2) develop
case‑based and analogical reasoning as
alternative techniques for representing and acquiring knowledge in
Artificial
Intelligence (AI) programs;
(3) identify and
analyze special legal problems posed by
computer technology in such areas as intellectual property, commercial
law,
product liability, technology licensing, computer crime and privacy.
