Abstract

A photograph classification unit classifies the photographs for each scene in a music-feature information determination unit. A photograph feature acquisition unit identifies a feature of the photograph based on additional information of the photograph and a result of face recognition of the image. A tempo determination unit determines a tempo of music based on a time zone of image capturing, a range of the number of people captured in a photograph, the degree of smile, activities, etc. A melody determination unit determines information that confines a title, a feature value, a genre, etc., based on an event, a time zone, and a season at the time of image capturing, a city and a country in which the image capturing has occurred, etc. Based on the determined feature of the music, a music data output unit extracts and then presents matching music.
