Abstract: This invention is to appropriately support creation of a classification rule for a new data item. This method includes: storing a new data item and a category of the new data item into a storage; extracting feature patterns each including a condition including a feature element of the new data item stored in the storage and a corresponding category from data stored in a correct answer data storage, which stores data items and categories of the data items, and storing the feature patterns into a feature pattern storage; and grouping the feature patterns stored in the feature pattern storage into a first set whose feature pattern matches with the category of the new data item stored in the storage and a second set whose feature pattern does not match with the category of the new data item, and storing a grouping result into a group data storage.

Abstract: A category setting support method according to this invention includes calculating an influence degree to carry out a category setting to a data item for each of a plurality of data items stored in a data storage based on a predetermined relevant item, and storing the influence degree into the data storage in association with the corresponding data item; and determining a category setting priority order for each data item based on the influence degrees stored in the data storage, and displaying a display to carry out the category setting based on the category setting priority order. Accordingly, it becomes possible for a user such as a system administrator to efficiently set a category to the data item.
