1. A conference supporting apparatus comprising:
- a first acquiring unit that acquires structured data recorded with conference content in time series;
a second acquiring unit that acquires input information input during a conference from an input device;
a first storing unit that stores therein the structured data and the input information;
an extracting unit that extracts keywords from the structured data and the input information stored in the first storing unit;
a first specifying unit that specifies an abstract level of each of the keywords based on predetermined rules;
a calculating unit that calculates importance level of each of the keywords based on the input information stored in the first storing unit;
a second specifying unit that specifies a heading for each of the abstract levels from the keywords based on the importance levels;
a determining unit that determines a hierarchical structure representing a relationship between the headings based on the abstract level of each of the headings; and
a receiving unit that receives information on a desired part of the input information and the structured data stored in the first storing unit based on the hierarchically structured headings.

Abstract
A conference supporting apparatus acquires structured data recorded with conference content in time series, and acquires information input during a conference. Keywords are extracted from the structured data and the input information. An abstract level of each of the keywords is specified in accordance with predetermined rules. Importance level of each of the keywords is calculated based on the input information. Finally, a heading for each of the abstract levels is specified from the keywords based on the importance levels.
