Method of, apparatus for, and computer program for mapping contents having meta-information
First Claim
1. A method of mapping contents to a low dimensional space, each of a plurality of items of contents having meta-information including classification information, comprising the steps of:
- assigning each item of contents a concept vector; and
assigning each item of contents position information in a low dimensional space based on the concept vector assigned to the item of contents;
wherein two items of contents are mapped at a short distance from each other to such an extent that the classification information of said one item of contents is close to the classification information of said other item of contents.

Abstract
A method of mapping a large number of items of contents each having meta-information to a low dimensional space so that the map of the contents reflects the meta-information. The method includes the steps of assigning a concept vector to each item of contents, adjusting the distance between two items of contents so that the closer the classification information of the two items of contents match, the more the distance is reduced, and assigning position information in the low dimensional space to each item of contents based on the adjusted distance.
