AI Technical Summary
When prosecutors prepare court appearance plans, they need to manually review information such as laws and regulations, expert opinions, and points of contention in similar cases, which is time-consuming and lacks accuracy.
By inputting the indictment, the system segments and parses the case information and criminal facts in a structured manner. It then filters out highly similar case information, laws and regulations, expert opinions, and points of contention from the case knowledge base, calculates the similarity, and recommends relevant information.
This reduced the workload of prosecutors and improved the accuracy of information recommendations and case-handling efficiency.

[0067] (II) Structured Analysis
[0068] A standard complaint format is as follows:
[0069] The defendant, Zou Moumou, male, was sentenced to seven months imprisonment by the XX People's Court on March 10, 2003, for the crime of provoking trouble; he was administratively detained for 15 days by the XX Branch Bureau on December 13, 1983, for assaulting others and insulting women without cause; he was administratively detained for 7 days by the XX Branch Bureau on February 7, 2004, for disturbing public order; and he was criminally detained by the XX Branch Bureau on September 3, 2015, on suspicion of intentional injury, and was arrested by the XX Branch Bureau on November 5 of the same year with the approval of the XX District People's Procuratorate.
[0070] This case was investigated and concluded by the XX Branch Bureau, and on December 16, 2015, the defendant, Zou Moumou, was suspected of intentional injury and transferred to the XX District People's Procuratorate for review and prosecution. After review, the procuratorate informed the defendant on December 18 of the same year of his right to appoint a defense lawyer, and the victim's close relatives of his right to appoint a litigation agent. The case was submitted to this procuratorate for review and prosecution on January 6, 2016. After accepting the case, this procuratorate interrogated the defendant in accordance with the law, listened to the opinions of the defendant's defense lawyer, and reviewed all case materials.
[0071] After investigation in accordance with the law, it was found that:
[0072] On September 3, 2015, at approximately 3:40 PM, the defendant, Zou Moumou, due to a family dispute near XXX, intercepted an electric bicycle ridden by his sister, the victim Zou Moujia, and Zou Mouyi. He then attacked Zou Moujia and Zou Mouyi with an axe, causing Zou Moujia's immediate death and Zou Mouyi's injuries. An autopsy determined that Zou Moujia died from craniocerebral injury caused by being struck in the head, face, and both upper limbs with a sharp object; Zou Mouyi sustained minor injuries including scalp contusions, scalp wounds, and multiple soft tissue injuries to her limbs from external force.
[0073] At approximately 7:00 PM that day, the defendant, Zou, was apprehended by police officers waiting at the entrance of his temporary residence. Further evaluation revealed that Zou suffers from schizotypal disorder, and in this case, he should be assessed as having limited criminal responsibility, but currently, he should be assessed as having the capacity to stand trial.
[0074] The above facts are proven by the following evidence:
[0075] 1. The statement of the victim Zou Mouyi, the testimonies of witnesses XX et al., the identification records of XX et al., the confession of the defendant Zou Moumou, the "Seizure List" of XX Branch Bureau, and the physical evidence of an axe, etc., prove that: the defendant Zou Moumou used an axe to chop at the victims Zou Moujia and Zou Mouyi, and then threw the axe into the nearby green belt before fleeing the scene.
[0076] 2. Evidence including the "Scene Investigation Record" from the Criminal Science and Technology Research Institute of XX Branch Bureau, the "Appraisal Opinion" from the Forensic Science and Technology Research Institute, the "Appraisal Report" from the Evidence Identification Center of XX Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the "Forensic DNA Identification Report" from the Evidence Identification Center of XX Municipal Public Security Bureau, confirms that: According to the forensic examination, the victim, Zou Jia, died from craniocerebral injury caused by being struck on the head, face, and both upper limbs with a sharp object; the victim, Zou Yi, suffered minor injuries including scalp contusions, scalp wounds, and multiple soft tissue injuries to the limbs due to external force; the possibility that the bloodstains on the inside of the right shoe of the brown leather shoes worn by the defendant, Zou Moumou, were left by Zou Jia cannot be ruled out, and the circumstances of the scene investigation, bloodstain extraction, and identification cannot be ignored.
[0077] 3. Evidence such as the statement of the victim Zou Mouyi, the testimony of witnesses XX et al., the confession of the defendant Zou Moumou, copies of relevant agreements, and the "Certificate" issued by the XX Community Affairs Service Center proves that the defendant Zou Moumou had family conflicts with the victims Zou Mouyi and Zou Moujia.
[0078] 4. Evidence such as the "Investigation Process" issued by the XX Branch Bureau, the "Basic Information of Permanent Residents" and registration form of the defendant Zou Moumou, the "Appraisal Opinion" of the Judicial Appraisal Center of the Institute of Judicial Appraisal Science and Technology, and the "Criminal Judgment" of the XX District People's Court proves that: the defendant Zou Moumou suffers from schizophrenia, has limited criminal responsibility in this case, is currently capable of standing trial, and provides information on his arrival at the scene, his identity, and his prior criminal record.
[0079] The aforementioned evidence was obtained and collected legally, and its content is objective and truthful, sufficient to establish the facts of the charges.
[0080] This court finds that the defendant, Zou, intentionally killed one person and caused minor injury to another. His actions violate Article 232 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China. The facts of the crime are clear, and the evidence is conclusive and sufficient. He should be held criminally liable for intentional homicide. The defendant, Zou, has diminished criminal responsibility and should be subject to Article 18, Paragraph 3 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China. In accordance with Article 172 of the Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China, this public prosecution is hereby initiated, and a trial is requested in accordance with the law.
[0081] Analyzing the above document reveals that the indictment comprises the following sections: "Defendant Information," "Facts of the Crime," "List of Evidence," and "The Court's Opinion." Based on phrases such as "Defendant," "Upon investigation and verification according to law:," "The above facts are proven by the following evidence:," and "The Court's Opinion," the input indictment can be segmented. After segmentation, the "Cause of Action" and "Facts of the Crime" information of the input case can be structurally parsed.
[0082] (III) Similarity Calculation
[0083] The processing flow is as follows:
[0084] Case Filtering: For cases with a cause of action derived from structured parsing, such as "intentional injury," only relevant information from four dimensions—case information, laws and regulations, expert opinions, points of contention, and key points for defense—is loaded from the knowledge base.
[0085] The similarity of the "criminal facts" obtained from the structured analysis with the content in the knowledge base in four dimensions: criminal facts, laws and regulations, expert opinions, points of contention, and key points of defense.
[0086] Sort the similarity calculation results of the above four dimensions in reverse order and return the sorted results.
[0087] Prosecutors can examine similarities across four dimensions and export the necessary data as supplementary material for developing courtroom response plans.
