First Claim
1. A data retrieval apparatus comprising:
- storing means for storing a plurality of names each of which is given for each of a plurality of evaluation targets, and a plurality of evaluations each of which is given in advance by a designated evaluator on a prescribed evaluation item for each of said plurality of evaluation targets;
selection key receiving means for receiving an evaluation given by a user on the evaluation item for a particular evaluation target;
selection key correction means for correcting the evaluation received by said selection key receiving means by using an evaluation gap obtained on the basis of the evaluations given by the evaluator and the user on the evaluation item for the particular evaluation target; and

Abstract
The invention provides a data retrieval apparatus which includes a sensibility database 2 for storing a plurality of title names, evaluation points on a plurality of evaluation items, and identifiers assigned to evaluators responsible for the evaluation points; an evaluation point input block 1 for accepting an evaluation on each of the plurality of evaluation items; an evaluation point correction process block 5 for correcting each of the evaluations accepted by the evaluation point input block 1 by using a plurality of evaluator difference data for each of the plurality of evaluators; a retrieval criteria generating process block 6 for selecting a title name from the sensibility database 2 on the basis of each corrected evaluation; and a data retrieval process block 7. With this data retrieval apparatus, flexible data retrieval can be conducted by just entering subjective evaluation points even for objects from which objective numeric values related to subjective evaluation criteria are difficult to extract.
