Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a reception section that receives one or a plurality of segments input by a user, a first specifying section that specifies each concept corresponding to at least one segment received by the reception section among concepts present in concept structure information in which concepts having a relationship are related to each other in a hierarchical structure, a second specifying section that specifies a position of each concept specified by the first specifying section in a hierarchy of the concept structure information, and a decision section that decides a professionalism degree of the user in a field which is specified based on the concept structure information including the concept corresponding to the segment received by the reception section from the position of each concept specified by the second specifying section.

Claims (33)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a reception section that receives one or a plurality of segments input by a user;

a first specifying section that specifies each concept corresponding to at least one segment received by the reception section among concepts present in concept structure information in which concepts having a relationship are related to each other in a hierarchical structure;

a second specifying section that specifies a position of each concept specified by the first specifying section in a hierarchy of the concept structure information; and

a decision section that decides a professionalism degree of the user in a field which is specified based on the concept structure information including the concept corresponding to the segment received by the reception section from the position of each concept specified by the second specifying section.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the decision section decides that the professionalism degree of the user is higher as the position in the hierarchy of the concept corresponding to each segment received by the reception section is deeper.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein as the number of concepts present between a most superordinate concept of the concept structure information and the concept at the position specified by the second specifying section is larger, the concept at the position specified by the second specifying section is deeper.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein in a case where the concept corresponding to the segment is related to a plurality of concepts, a path including the concept specified by the first specifying section is specified between a most superordinate concept of the concept structure information and the concept corresponding to the segment which is related to the plurality of concepts, and the depth of the position in the hierarchy of the concept corresponding to each segment received by the reception section is decided from the number of concepts present between the most superordinate concept of the concept structure information and the concept at the position specified by the second specifying section in the specified path.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein in a case where the concept corresponding to the segment is related to a plurality of concepts, a path including the concept specified by the first specifying section is specified between a most superordinate concept of the concept structure information and the concept corresponding to the segment which is related to the plurality of concepts, and the depth of the position in the hierarchy of the concept corresponding to each segment received by the reception section is decided from the number of concepts present between the most superordinate concept of the concept structure information and the concept at the position specified by the second specifying section in the specified path.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein a professionalism degree of the concept is set in the concept present in the concept structure information, and

the decision section decides the professionalism degree of the user based on the professionalism degree of the concept corresponding to the position of each segment specified by the second specifying section.

7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a setting section that sets a professionalism degree of the concept for which the professionalism degree is not set among the concepts present in the concept structure information by referring to the professionalism degree of another concept included in a field to which the concept belongs,

wherein in a case where the professionalism degree is not set in the concept corresponding to the segment received by the reception section, the decision section decides the professionalism degree of the user by referring to the professionalism degree of the concept set by the setting section.

8 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the decision section decides the professionalism degree of the user based on a positional relationship in the hierarchy of the concept corresponding to each segment received by the reception section.

9 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 ,

wherein the decision section decides that the professionalism degree of the user is higher as a distance of the concept corresponding to each segment received by the reception section from a most superordinate concept of the concept structure information is longer.

10 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to function as:

a reception section that receives one or a plurality of segments input by a user;

a first specifying section that specifies each concept corresponding to at least one segment received by the reception section among concepts present in concept structure information in which concepts having a relationship are related to each other in a hierarchical structure;

a second specifying section that specifies a position of each concept specified by the first specifying section in a hierarchy of the concept structure information; and

a decision section that decides a professionalism degree of the user in a field which is specified based on the concept structure information including the concept corresponding to the segment received by the reception section from the position of each concept specified by the second specifying section.

11 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

reception means for receiving one or a plurality of segments input by a user;

first specifying means for specifying each concept corresponding to at least one segment received by the reception section among concepts present in concept structure information in which concepts having a relationship are related to each other in a hierarchical structure;

second specifying means for specifying a position of each concept specified by the first specifying means in a hierarchy of the concept structure information; and

decision means for deciding a professionalism degree of the user in a field which is specified based on the concept structure information including the concept corresponding to the segment received by the reception means from the position of each concept specified by the second specifying means.
