• Abstract: There is an evident lack of implementation of Machine Learning (ML) in the legal domain in India, and any research that does take place in this domain is usually based on data from the higher courts of law and works with English data. The lower courts and data from the different regional languages of India are often overlooked. In this paper, we deploy a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture on a corpus of Hindi legal documents. We perform a bail Prediction task with the help of a CNN model and achieve an overall accuracy of 93\% which is an improvement on the benchmark accuracy, set by Kapoor et al. (2022), albeit in data from 20 districts of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.

• Predicting delays in Indian lower courts using AutoML and Decision Forests [0.0]
  This paper presents a classification model that predicts delays in Indian lower courts based on case information available at filing. The model is built on a dataset of 4.2 million court cases filed in 2010 and their outcomes over a 10-year period. The best model achieved an accuracy of 81.4%, and the precision, recall, and F1 were found to be 0.81.

• An Attention Ensemble Approach for Efficient Text Classification of Indian Languages [0.0]
  This paper focuses on the coarse-grained technical domain identification of short text documents in Marathi, a Devanagari script-based Indian language. A hybrid CNN-BiLSTM attention ensemble model is proposed that competently combines the intermediate sentence representations generated by the convolutional neural network and the bidirectional long short-term memory, leading to efficient text classification. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms various baseline machine learning and deep learning models in the given task, giving the best validation accuracy of 89.57% and f1-score of 0.8875.

• Localized convolutional neural networks for geospatial wind forecasting [0.0]
  Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) possess positive qualities when it comes to many spatial data. In this work, we propose localized convolutional neural networks that enable CNNs to learn local features in addition to the global ones. They can be added to any convolutional layers, easily end-to-end trained, introduce minimal additional complexity, and let CNNs retain most of their benefits to the extent that they are needed.
