Service: PROJECT PIERINO

Responsible organisation: Ministry of Education (Central-Government)

The Pierino project (PIattaforma for the Extraction and Retrieval of Online Information) was curated by the Digital Humanities research group of the Bruno Kessler and Tommaso Caselli Foundation of the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and led to the creation of a platform for the automatic analysis of linguistic data, which works through AI techniques of semantic analysis and modules for the automatic processing of natural language. The platform was used for the first time by the Ministry of Education to analyze the data of the public consultation "La buona scuola" and made it possible to process and synthesize 270 thousand comments in less than a week, making it possible to significantly reduce analysis times questionnaires. The platform has been designed in such a way as to be as flexible as possible to quickly process data from future consultations.
