At the Eurocrim conference in Athens, Sentrix research team presented the first phase of the project, in which they used artificial intelligence to map the field of sentencing research.
How? Using artificial intelligence, they created an interactive map that brings together research, methods, and ideas on sentencing across law, psychology, sociology, decision theory, and beyond. Rather than a static review, this approach generates a dynamic network of papers that can be searched, filtered, and visualised along a wide range of properties, offering new ways of seeing connections and gaps in the field.
In this way, they can identify and analyse (hopefully even latent) factors that structure sentencing in a decision-making environment, and determine what parts of this environment are well-represented in the literature (and perhaps what’s missing or omitted).
