1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

  • a processor configured toexecute a recognition of a behavior of a user based on a processing of sensor data, wherein the processing of sensor data includes determining horizontal acceleration of the user and vertical acceleration of the user, determining a horizontal direction variance value of the horizontal acceleration of the user over a predetermined period of time and a vertical direction variance value of the vertical acceleration of the user over the predetermined period of time, comparing the horizontal direction variance value and the vertical direction variance value to determine a smaller variance value, and comparing an integration value representing integration over the predetermined period of time of the smaller variance value resulting from the comparison between the horizontal direction variance value and the vertical direction variance value with a minimum determination threshold for the behavior; and

    obtain, based on the recognized behavior, a behavior information of a vehicle boarding state indicating whether or not the user has boarded a vehicle, wherein the behavior information indicates that the user has boarded the vehicle when the integration value is greater than the minimum determination threshold; and

    a storage unit configured to store the obtained behavior information.
