Final call for papers for the workshop on AI for Evidential Reasoning (AI4EVIR)
(in conjunction with JURIX 2025, 10–11 December, Turin)  
Workshop date: 9 December 2025 (half-day)

Website: https://aludi.github.io/AI4EVIR/

Deadline for paper submission: November 10th, If you would like to submit a paper but have trouble meeting the deadline, contact the organizers as soon as possible.

Reasoning with evidence to establish relevant facts lies at the heart of legal reasoning. The AI for Evidential Reasoning workshop (AI4EVIR) aims to bring together researchers working on formal, computational, and empirical approaches to reasoning with evidence, as well as those with expertise in forensic science and evidence evaluation. The goal is to foster discussion and exchange between theoretical and applied perspectives on how AI can contribute to evidential reasoning in legal and investigative contexts.

The half-day workshop will feature:

- A keynote on “The evaluation of digital findings in forensic casework” by Marouschka Vink from the Netherlands Forensic Institute (NFI)
- Paper presentations on accepted papers
- A discussion session focused on practical examples 

The workshop proceedings will be submitted to CEUR for publication.

-----------------

- Legal and commonsense reasoning with evidence
- Empirical studies and data-driven analyses of reasoning with evidence
