Abstract
A classification information setting method for classifying contents into series comprises: a similarity determination step for determining a similarity between first contents classified into a series and second contents unclassified yet; and a classification setting step for setting, in case the similarity exists, classification information related to the first contents, as classification information for the second contents. At the similarity determination step, the similarity is determined by comparing text data contained in the first contents and text data contained in the second contents.
