Task 4

Legal Textual Entailment (SL-TE)

Our goal is to construct Yes/No question answering systems for legal queries, by entailment from the relevant articles. Difference between Task 3 and Task 4 is the treatment of the relevant articles. For the Task 4, the participants can use the manually selected golden relevant articles given by the organizers instead of retrieving relevant articles. There should be no human intervention at any stage, including modifications to your retrieval system motivated by an inspection of the queries. You should not materially modify your retrieval system between the time you downloaded the formal run queries and the time you submit your runs.
