EPICOLEN's  main objective is a system capable of automatically assessing specific groups of people, both psychologically and cognitively, using free text (spoken or written) and natural language processing methodologies. Its two subprojects consider two key groups that serve as case studies: children/adolescents and older adults. The project's objectives will greatly facilitate the work of caregivers and other responsible individuals, as well as complement current manual methods.
