Dr. Medvedeva (University of Groningen)
Automatically Identifying Eviction Cases and Outcomes Within Case Law of Dutch Courts of First Instance
In her talk EVICT’s own Masha Medvedeva will talk about expanding datasets for legal research using machine learning. She will discuss her work on collecting eviction-related cases among all cases published by the Dutch judiciary, and identifying their outcomes, i.e. whether the tenant was indeed evicted or not. While the talk will focus specifically on eviction cases, proposed methodologies have a high potential to be applicable for collecting case law in other domains, e.g., bankruptcy, divorce, etc.
This talk will be held online and begins at 4:00 pm and end at 5:00 pm CET (Amsterdam/Berlin/Paris, UTC+01:00).
