Abstract:
1. An information processing method, comprising: extracting, by a computing system, a set of metadata from contents; updating, by the computing system, a candidate metadata list by interrelating the metadata of the set to generate a candidate metadata for each metadata group identified from the interrelation, generating an extraction frequency value for each candidate metadata, and adding each candidate metadata and the extraction frequency value corresponding to that candidate metadata to the candidate metadata list; comparing, by the computing system, the extraction frequency value of each candidate metadata on the candidate metadata list to a threshold value; updating, by the computing system, a typical metadata list by promoting from the candidate metadata list each candidate metadata whose extraction frequency value is greater than the threshold value as typical metadata to the typical metadata; and deleting, by the computing system, each candidate metadata whose extraction frequency value is greater than the threshold value from the candidate metadata list after promotion to the typical metadata list, wherein the typical metadata list respectively associates each typical metadata with the extraction frequency value corresponding to the promoted candidate metadata.
