1. A conference information processing apparatus comprising:
- an extracting unit which extracts partial conference audio and/or visual information from conference audio and/or visual information, the partial conference audio and/or visual information comprising at least one of audio data and video data of one or more physical actions performed by a conference participant in the conference audio and/or visual information, and which extracts at least one of audio and visual information of each physical action from the partial audio and/or visual information; and
a providing unit which generates an index relating the partial conference audio and/or visual data to the physical actions, the index comprising;
information relating the one or more physical actions with a time duration over which the one or more physical actions occur;
information relating one or more physical actions with one or more functional actions, each functional action abstracted from one more physical actions; and
information relating the partial conference audio and/or visual information with one or more functional actions, the partial conference audio and/or visual information abstracted from one or more functional actions; and
a display unit which displays a summary of the conference audio and/or visual information, the summary comprising;
the one or more physical actions based on the time duration over which the one or more physical actions occur;
the one or more functional actions hierarchically arranged from the one or more physical actions; and
the partial conference audio and/or visual data hierarchically arranged from one or more functional actions.
