摘要
What can machine learning reveal about the hidden structure of law, and what does law reveal about the limits of machine learning? This talk presents a research agenda that approaches the Brazilian judiciary as a scientific object: a large-scale, evolving system whose behavior emerges from interactions among institutions, rules, people, and data. Drawing on an ongoing collaboration with the São Paulo Court of Justice (TJSP), the project combines empirical findings from classification, clustering, and segmentation models with a cross-disciplinary framework for understanding bias and risk in judicial AI, drawing from machine learning, legal theory, and the sociology of inequality. The long-term goal is the development of an empirical risk index for AI tools in judicial settings, and a book conceived as an interdisciplinary scientific contribution across mathematics, law, and social science. We believe judicial systems offer a rich and underexplored laboratory for formal modeling, and welcome collaborators who see in institutional and social complexity a productive frontier for their own research.
演讲者介绍
Nubia Regina Ventura is a postdoctoral researcher and CAPES fellow at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science (ICMC), University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Law from São Paulo State University (UNESP) and a Master's degree and Ph.D. in Civil Procedure Law from USP.
She has served as a law professor at both public and private higher education institutions in Brazil and is also a licensed practicing lawyer. Her recent work includes collaborations with the São Paulo State Court of Justice on projects involving Artificial Intelligence and judicial systems, as well as participation in initiatives linked to Brazil’s National Institute of Science and Technology (INCT). Her research focuses on Artificial Intelligence and Law, empirical legal studies, judicial governance, fairness in machine learning, and applying machine learning methods to the study of judicial systems.
She is visiting BIMSA with a support from the "ICMRA Visiting Scholars Program".
