  • Patent number: 11507625
    Abstract: A query generation system includes a database and a processor. The database stores information to be searched, the information being associated with features having multiple types of expressions. The processor is configured to, when a character string to be used to search the database is input without constraint on a type of expression, apply a first dictionary to a character string having a first type of expression, which is included in the input character string, to generate a query for a search from the character string having the first type of expression.
