<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system which eliminates the need to manage user information, an audience history, etc., excludes ambiguity based upon the context of video contents, and can recommend proper video contents. <P>SOLUTION: A video content database 15 previously stores contexts of existent or new video contents. When video contents that a viewer likes are inputted to a video content input section 11, a context constitution section divides the video contents into small sections and estimates small-section kind information to generate a context. A context similarity measurement section 13 collates the generated context with the context of video contents read out of the video content database 15 to measure their similarity. Then contents with high context similarity are ranked higher as contents to be recommended to the viewer. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
