The Rule of Law and Automated Decision-Making
Author: Markku Suksi
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031301420
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
The book presents observations concerning automated decision-making from a general point of view at the same time as it analyses the manner in which praxis in some jurisdictions has evolved as concerns automated decision-making and how the requirements that are placed by the legal orders on it are formulated. The principle of the rule of law should apply in the context of automated decision-making of public authorities just as much as when the decision-makers are physical persons. In sync with increasing automatization of decision-making in public authorities, problematizing questions about the appropriate legal basis for algorithmic decision-making have started emerge. How should the principle of the rule of law apply within the area of automated decision-making, how should automated decision-making be regulated so that it satisfies the requirements created by the principle of the rule of law, and how should the principle of the rule of law be made concrete in decision-making that is based on algorithms? The proposal for an AI Act launched by the European Commission in April 2021, including an identification of high-risk uses of algorithmic techniques, raises further questions concerning practices and interpretations related to automated decision-making. The state based on the rule of law proceeds from the maxim that public powers are exercised within a legal frame that makes the exercise of public powers foreseeable in light of legal norms. Also, a state based on the rule of law requires that the contents of the exercise of public powers is regulated by legal norms, which means that the citizens must be able to know everything that is relevant about how the powers will be exercised, not only who it is that will exercise the powers. Because of rules and principles of this kind, including non-discrimination and proportionality, the exercise of powers will not become arbitrary.

Model-Driven Development of Akoma Ntoso Application Profiles
Author: Amelie Flatt
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031141326
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
This book presents a model-driven approach for creating a national application profile of the international legislative document standard Akoma Ntoso (AKN). AKN is an XML-based document standard that serves as the basis for modern machine-readable and fully digital legislative and judicial processes. The described model-driven development approach ensures consistent and error-proof application of AKN concepts and types, even when using different software tools. It allows for easy maintenance, is self-documenting, and facilitates stakeholder validation with nontechnical legal experts. The resulting application profile remains fully compliant to and compatible with AKN. For the sake of illustration, the approach is paradigmatically applied to the German federal legislative process, as a corresponding approach was used in the creation of the German AKN application profile, LegalDocML.de. We discuss how the methodology yields a model, schema definition and specification that correspond to the artefacts created by LegalDocML.de, using examples from Germany. The book is of interest to both legal and technical project teams on the cusp of introducing AKN in a legislative domain and intended as a practical guideline for teams preparing to create a custom application profile for their own domain. Furthermore, it can serve as both a resource and an inspiration for similar and yet to be developed methodologies in the public sector, the health sector or in defense, where international standardization and interoperability efforts are to be applied to a local level.

The New Laws of Outer Space
Author: Ugo Pagallo
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1509976205
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This book maps out the moral, legal and societal issues brought forth by the use of autonomous systems such as AI and smart robots in outer space. Humanity is on the brink of a new space era in which projects for permanent human colonies on the Moon and space missions with autonomous AI systems will soon become a reality. Principles and provisions of international space law fall increasingly short in tackling this scenario. Experts and institutions have recommended improvements to the legal framework, such as new international agreements, or policies that would not require any amendment to conventional law. Most of the time, such proposals and recommendations overlook the challenges posed by technology and how autonomous and intelligent systems in outer space require moral and legal standards of their own. This book argues that the traditional focus on satellite communications, space-related services, and the appropriability of celestial resources needs to be integrated by new laws of outer space regulating cybersecurity law and environmental law, data governance and consumer protection. The new laws of outer space will increasingly concern the development of new standards for the behaviour and decision-making of AI systems and smart robots, with and without humans aboard deep space missions and in next-generation colonies. What laws shall govern us out there, in a new terra incognita? This is the question that the book sets out to answer.

Towards a Knowledge-Aware AI
Author: A. Dimou
Publisher: IOS Press
ISBN: 1643683217
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Semantic systems lie at the heart of modern computing, interlinking with areas as diverse as AI, data science, knowledge discovery and management, big data analytics, e-commerce, enterprise search, technical documentation, document management, business intelligence, enterprise vocabulary management, machine learning, logic programming, content engineering, social computing, and the Semantic Web. This book presents the proceedings of SEMANTiCS 2022, the 18th International Conference on Semantic Systems, held as a hybrid event – live in Vienna, Austria and online – from 12 to 15 September 2022. The SEMANTiCS conference is an annual meeting place for the professionals and researchers who make semantic computing work, who understand its benefits and encounter its limitations, and is attended by information managers, IT architects, software engineers, and researchers from organizations ranging from research facilities and NPOs, through public administrations to the largest companies in the world. The theme and subtitle of the 2022 conference was Towards A Knowledge-Aware AI, and the book contains 15 papers, selected on the basis of quality, impact and scientific merit following a rigorous review process which resulted in an acceptance rate of 29%. The book is divided into four chapters: semantics in data quality, standards and protection; representation learning and reasoning for downstream AI tasks; ontology development; and learning over complementary knowledge. Providing an overview of emerging trends and topics in the wide area of semantic computing, the book will be of interest to anyone involved in the development and deployment of computer technology and AI systems.
