Abstract
A retrieval device includes a searching unit, an obtaining unit and a selecting unit. The searching unit searches a memory unit, which is stored object data that includes specific information identifying an object and attribute information indicating at least one of timing and position, for first object data containing specific information identical or similar to specified specific information. The obtaining unit obtains, from the memory unit, one or more sets of second object data which contains attribute information identical or similar to the attribute information included in the first object data and which contains specific information different than the specific information included in the first object data. The selecting unit selects one of the sets of second object data. The searching unit further searches for the first object data with the specific information included in the selected second object data serving as specified specific information.
