Law Probability & Risk

Journal Title：Law Probability & Risk

Law, Probability & Risk is a fully refereed journal which publishes papers dealing with topics on the interface of law and probabilistic reasoning. These are interpreted broadly to include aspects relevant to the interpretation of scientific evidence, the assessment of uncertainty and the assessment of risk. The readership includes academic lawyers, mathematicians, statisticians and social scientists with interests in quantitative reasoning.

The primary objective of the journal is to cover issues in law, which have a scientific element, with an emphasis on statistical and probabilistic issues and the assessment of risk.

Examples of topics which may be covered include communications law, computers and the law, environmental law, law and medicine, regulatory law for science and technology, identification problems (such as DNA but including other materials), sampling issues (drugs, computer pornography, fraud), offender profiling, credit scoring, risk assessment, the role of statistics and probability in drafting legislation, the assessment of competing theories of evidence (possibly with a view to forming an optimal combination of them). In addition, a whole new area is emerging in the application of computers to medicine and other safety-critical areas. New legislation is required to define the responsibility of computer experts who develop software for tackling these safety-critical problems.

Law, Probability & Risk 是一本经过全面审查的期刊，发表的论文涉及法律和概率推理的接口方面的主题。这些被广泛解释为包括与科学证据解释、不确定性评估和风险评估相关的方面。读者群包括对定量推理感兴趣的学术律师、数学家、统计学家和社会科学家。

该期刊的主要目标是涵盖具有科学元素的法律问题，重点是统计和概率问题以及风险评估。

可能涉及的主题示例包括通信法、计算机和法律、环境法、法律和医学、科学技术监管法、识别问题（例如 DNA，但包括其他材料）、抽样问题（药物、计算机色情、欺诈）、犯罪者分析、信用评分、风险评估、统计数据和概率在起草立法中的作用、对相互竞争的证据理论的评估（可能是为了形成它们的最佳组合）。此外，计算机在医学和其他安全关键领域的应用正在出现一个全新的领域。需要新的立法来定义开发软件以解决这些安全关键问题的计算机专家的责任。

Law Probability & Risk创刊于2001年，由OXFORD UNIV PRESS出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖MATHEMATICSSTATISTICS & PROBABILITY& - STATISTICS & PROBABILITY全领域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所属细分领域中专业影响力一般，过审相对较易，如果您文章质量佳，选择此期刊，发表机率较高。影响因子指数0.676，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
