The seminars are intended for academic staff and doctoral/master students. They will be held on 8 November (Saturday) in the room L-102 (MRU Research and Innovation Hive, Didlaukio g. 55, Vilnius).From 9:45 to 11:15 – seminar "Comparative Law Research Methods".
This seminar explores the use of comparative law as a research method. It provides an introduction to different types of comparisons and to essential approaches. For example, the tertium comparationis, i.e., the third element of a comparison, is discussed. The seminar also engages with the insights and limits of comparative law approaches.
From 11:30 to 13:00 – seminar "Artificial Intelligence and Legal Scholarship".
This session investigates the use of machine learning and natural language processing for legal scholarship. The following examples are explained and discussed: predicting court decisions, extracting legal information from
large legal datasets and the creation of legal datasets for AI-based research. The session is also an opportunity to consider how AI impacts the creation and consumption of legal research.
