A concept deleting unit deletes a predetermined morpheme from a morphological analysis result of the first character string and a morphological analysis result of the second character string. A similarity score calculating unit obtains a number of morphemes included in both of a morphological analysis result of the first character string and a second character string as a similarity score.
