Cognition Cognitive science Collaboration D-S evidence theory evidence cognition Evidence theory knowledge graph Law Man-machine systems natural language processing Psychology Simpson case smart justice
Evidence plays a pivotal role in litigation. However, biases can occur in evidence cognition if adjudicators' decisions are based on evidentiary presumptions or affected by various subjective factors. Modern research in cognitive psychology shows that those biases are closely related to people's different mental models. By examining the famous O. J. Simpson murder case, we studied the cognitive differences of trial evidences based on D-S Evidence Theory and knowledge graph technology, discussed the typical mental models of different cognitions through cluster analysis, and suggested an improved method to evaluate the evidences with cognition biases, which provides a reference for the analysis of evidence cognitions in legal cases aiming at construction of an intelligent human-machine collaborative system and mechanism towards smart justice.
