Claims

C1strongest claim

Evaluations on a U.S. Supreme Court dataset show that our method outperforms various baselines across multiple metrics.

C2weakest assumption

The U.S. Supreme Court dataset captures representative judicial questioning patterns and that the dual RL agents can learn effective strategies aligned with legal objectives without additional human feedback or validation.

C3one line summary

A dual hierarchical RL framework lets agents learn when and how to ask probing questions in U.S. Supreme Court arguments, outperforming baselines on a court dataset.
