NLP4Gov is a comprehensive library developed to assist scholars and practitioners in computational policy analysis. The library explores and integrates methods and capabilities from computational linguistics and NLP to generate semantic and symbolic representations of community policies from text records.
The key highlights and insights from the content are:
Online governance has drawn significant research interest, particularly in how collaborative initiatives regulate roles, rights, and responsibilities across communities and beneficiaries.
Formal policy analysis is gaining traction in socio-technical systems research, as policy functions to define resource and user boundaries, articulate sanctions, assign user rights and responsibilities, and implement sustainable management.
NLP4Gov provides a modular and documented toolkit with six major applications to support various tasks in computational policy analysis, including:
The toolkit leverages transformer-based language models and semantic embeddings to enable advanced natural language understanding and analysis of policy texts.
The authors discuss plans to further expand NLP4Gov's capabilities, including incorporating larger language models, low-resource learning approaches, and additional institutional grammar components like Context and Or-else.
