معرفی
Prof. Floris Bex (Utrecht University) is a leading scholar in AI & Law, focusing on explainable AI, computational argumentation, and responsible AI development. He holds a dual appointment at the Molengraaff Institute for Private Law and Department of Information and Computing Sciences, bridging legal theory with technical AI innovation. His work emphasizes transparency in high-risk domains like policing and judicial decision-making.
- Scientific Director, National Police Lab AI
- Member, Board of Advisory Scientific Research (WODC), Ministry of Justice
- Editorial roles in Artificial Intelligence and Law and Argument and Computation
His research combines symbolic and subsymbolic AI to create systems that reason with legal arguments, including projects like ALGOPOL and the Formal Explanations with Computational Argumentation framework. He has developed an explainable AI system for crime report assessment that improves citizen trust through transparent rejections.
Key publications span 2016–2024, with recent work on argumentation-based explanations, incomplete evidence handling, and human-AI collaboration in policing. His projects integrate Bayesian networks with argumentation theory to address real-world challenges in digital justice and public safety.
Scientific awards include:
- Editorial board member, Artificial Intelligence and Law
- Scientific Advisor to Dutch National Police
- Lead in ICAI network collaborations
He teaches Computational Argumentation and Law and Computer Science, and has supervised numerous AI & Law projects involving students like Daphne Odekerken and Anton Borg.
