Headnotes are the precise explanation and summary of legal points in an issued judgment. Law journals hire experienced lawyers to write these headnotes. These headnotes help the reader quickly determine the issue discussed in the case. Headnotes comprise two parts. The first part comprises the topic discussed in the judgment, and the second part contains a summary of that judgment. In this thesis, we design, develop and evaluate headnote prediction using machine learning, without involving human involvement. We divided this task into a two steps process. In the first step, we predict law points used in the judgment by using text classification algorithms. The second step generates a summary of the judgment using text summarization techniques. To achieve this task, we created a Databank by extracting data from different law sources in Pakistan. We labelled training data generated based on Pakistan law websites. We tested different feature extraction methods on judiciary data to improve our system. Using these feature extraction methods, we developed a dictionary of terminology for ease of reference and utility. Our approach achieves 65% accuracy by using Linear Support Vector Classification with tri-gram and without stemmer. Using active learning our system can continuously improve the accuracy with the increased labelled examples provided by the users of the system.

With the rapid development of Internet technology and information technology, the emergence of a large number of document data, text classification techniques for handling massive amounts of data is becoming increasingly important. This paper presents a distributed text feature extraction method based on distributed computing model—MapReduce. In the process of mass text processing, solve the problem of processing text size limit and inadequate performance, provide the research of text feature extraction method a new way of thinking.

By clustering feature words, we can not only simplify the dimension of feature subsets, but also eliminate the redundancy of the feature. However, for a feature set with very large dimensions, the traditional [Formula: see text]-medoids algorithm is difficult to accurately estimate the value of [Formula: see text]. Moreover, the clustering results of the average linkage (AL) algorithm cannot be divided again, and the AL algorithm cannot be directly used for text classification. In order to overcome the limitations of AL and [Formula: see text]-medoids, in this paper, we combine the two algorithms together so as to be mutually complementary to each other. In particular, in order to meet the purpose of text classification, we improve the AL algorithm and propose the [Formula: see text] testing statistics to obtain the approximate number of clusters. Finally, the central feature words are preserved, and the other feature words are deleted. The experimental results show that the new algorithm largely eliminates the redundancy of the feature. Compared with the traditional TF-IDF algorithms, the performance of the text classification of the new algorithm is improved.

Feature extraction is a key point of text categorization[1]. The accuracy of extraction will directly affect the accuracy of text classification. This paper introduces and compares 4 commonly used methods of text feature extraction: IG (Information gain), MI (Mutual information), CHI (statistics), DF (Document frequency), and proposes an improved method based on the method of CHI. Experiment result shows that the proposed method can improve the accuracy of text categorization.
