WHO WE ARE

The Instituto de Biomecánica (IBV) is a technology centre that studies the behaviour of the human body and its relationship with the products, environments and services that people use. It combines knowledge from biomechanics, anthropometry, ergonomics, human functions and people's needs and preferences to improve business competitiveness and quality of life.

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Description

Smart Citizen Voice methodology, a methodology that responds to a sequential process, which starts with the analysis of open data with Big data models, expanded, refined and validated by methodological approaches of a subjective nature as in the case of the analysis of data from social networks (Social Media Data) to end with qualitative studies aimed at understanding in detail the situations of study (Thick data), and the identification of solutions.
