Data groups, which are obtained by directly classifying the input from sensoror obtained after processing this input, are stored in a databasein which a word is attached to each of the data groups. On receiving a sensor input, a characteristic is extracted from the sensor input by a characteristic extractor unitand then the sensor input is classified by a characteristic comparison/classification unitusing the databaseIf the sensor input does not belong to any of the data groups in the databasethe sensor input is temporarily stored in a databasewith no word. After that, a word is attached to each of the classified data groups in the databaseby a word provision unitand the data groups are stored in the databasewith words.
