Abstract
Provided is a search system which is configured to search for a registered vector being similar to an input vector among a plurality of registered vectors, on the basis of a degree of similarity between an input vector and a registered vector. The search system includes a partial similarity calculation unit that calculates a degree of partial similarity which is the degree of similarity concerning some of one or more dimensions of the input vector and the registered vector, a limit calculation unit that calculates, on the basis of the degree of partial similarity, an upper limit of the degree of similarity that is expected when the degree of similarity is calculated, and a rejection decision unit that decides, on the basis of the upper limit of the degree of similarity, whether or not to reject the registered vector from a candidate for a search result.
