  • Patent number: 10025851
    Abstract: There is provided information processing apparatus. An extraction unit extracts features of a selected document from an inverted index in which documents and features of the documents are associated. A retrieval unit retrieves a document having any one of the features extracted by the extraction unit by the inverted index. A selection unit selects a feature of the features corresponding to a plurality of retrieval results by the retrieval unit, the feature having a high effect of narrowing down the retrieval results.
