A separation surface set storage part stores information defining a plurality of separation surfaces which separate a feature space into at least one known class region respectively corresponding to at least one known class and an unknown class region. Each of the at least one known class region is separated from outside region by more than one of the plurality of separation surfaces which do not intersect to each other. A data classification apparatus determine a classification of a classification target data whose inner product in the feature space is calculable by calculating to which region of the at least one known class region and the unknown class region determined by the information stored in the separation surface set storage part the classification target data belongs. A method and apparatus for data classification which can simultaneously perform identification and outlying value classification with high reliability in a same procedure are provided. |
