Aiming at the problem of poor recognition of sentencing circumstances in adjudication documents caused by the lack of labeled data, low quality of labeling and existence of strong logicality in judicial field, a sentencing circumstance recognition model based on abductive learning named ABL-CON (ABductive Learning in CONfidence) was proposed. Firstly, combining with neural network and domain logic inference, through the semi-supervised method, a confidence learning method was used to characterize the confidence of circumstance recognition. Then, the illogical error circumstances generated by neural network of the unlabeled data were corrected, and the recognition model was retrained to improve the recognition accuracy. Experimental results on the self-constructed judicial dataset show that the ABL-CON model using 50% labeled data and 50% unlabeled data achieves 90.35% and 90.58% in Macro_F1 and Micro_F1, respectively, which is better than BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) and SS-ABL (Semi-Supervised ABductive Learning) under the same conditions, and also surpasses the BERT model using 100% labeled data. The ABL-CON model can effectively improve the logical rationality of labels as well as the recognition ability of labels by correcting illogical labels through logical abductive correctness.
