This paper redefines statutory reasoning as an analogy task, combining two instances of statutory reasoning into one. This approach increases the dataset size by two orders of magnitude, making it more challenging for Natural Language Processing (NLP) models to tackle. The authors demonstrate that this task is similarly difficult to original tasks, then solve the problem using a combination of retrieval and analogy models, showing progress on comparable work.

This paper helps computers understand laws better by turning legal text into an analogy puzzle. It’s like comparing two sets of similar cases to figure out what the law says. This makes the task much bigger and harder for computers to solve. The researchers show that their approach is just as tricky as the original problem, then use a special combination of tools to make progress on this difficult task.
