European Court of Human Right Open Data project

This paper presents thirteen datasets for binary, multiclass and multilabel classification based on the European Court of Human Rights judgments since its creation. The interest of such datasets is explained through the prism of the researcher, the data scientist, the citizen and the legal practitioner. Contrarily to many datasets, the creation process, from the collection of raw data to the feature transformation, is provided under the form of a collection of fully automated and open-source scripts. It ensures reproducibility and a high level of confidence in the processed data which is some of the most important issues in data governance nowadays.
