Bailando

Bailando means dancing in Spanish. The goal of the UC Berkeley BAILANDO projects is to make access to information seem as graceful and effortless as the dances that we have named our projects after. That is, we want to provide BAILANDO or "Better Access to Information using Language Analysis and New Displays and Organizations".

The individual projects range from a search interface for intranets, to text data mining and automated evaluations of webpages. The unifying theme for these projects is to help people find, use, understand and create the information they need. The underlying philosophy behind these projects is that a strong focus on user interfaces and robust language analysis leads to better information access systems, and furthers our understanding of how people use and understand such systems.
