Statute-enhanced lexical retrieval of court cases for COLIEE 2022

17 Apr 2023  ·  Tobias Fink, Gabor Recski, Wojciech Kusa, Allan Hanbury ·

We discuss our experiments for COLIEE Task 1, a court case retrieval competition using cases from the Federal Court of Canada. During experiments on the training data we observe that passage level retrieval with rank fusion outperforms document level retrieval. By explicitly adding extracted statute information to the queries and documents we can further improve the results. We submit two passage level runs to the competition, which achieve high recall but low precision.
