1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a display unit configured to display an image;
an operation-input receiving unit configured to receive an operation input of a user; and
a display control unit configured to perform, when the operation-input receiving unit receives a predetermined operation for a root image displayed on the display unit, display control for causing the display unit to display one or more related images related to the root image, whereinthe display control unit calculates degrees of relation between all images that could be the root image or one of the related images on the basis of one or more classification items,the display control unit retrieves the one or more related images on the basis of the degrees of relation between the root image and the related images and causes the display unit to display the retrieved one or more related images, andwhen the operation-input receiving unit receives a contact operation for the root image by a finger of the user, the display control unit analyzes the root image based on a position in the root image where the contact operation is performed, specifies the classification item on the basis of a result of the analysis, and retrieves the one or more related images on the basis of a degree of relation calculated on the basis of the specified classification item.

14. An information processing method comprising:
-
allowing an information processing apparatus that displays an image and receives operation input of a user to perform, when a predetermined operation for a displayed root image is received, display control for causing a display unit to display one or more related images related to the root image; calculating, on the basis of one or more classification items, degrees of relation between all images that could be the root image or one of the related images; receiving the one or more related images out of all the images on the basis of the degrees of relation between the root image and the related images and causing the display means to display the retrieved one or more related images; analyzing, when a contact operation for the root image is received by a finger of the user, the root image based on a position in the root image where the contact operation is performed; specifying the classification item on the basis of a result of the analysis of the root image; and retrieving the one or more related images on the basis of a degree of relation calculated on the basis of the specified classification item.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored therein for causing a computer that controls an information processing apparatus that displays an image and receives operation input of a user to:
-
execute, when predetermined operation for a displayed root image is received, display control for causing a display unit to display a related image related to the root image; calculating, on the basis of one or more classification items, degrees of relation between all images that could be the root image or one of the related images; receiving the one or more related images out of all the images on the basis of the degrees of relation between the root image and the related images and causing the display means to display the retrieved one or more related images; analyzing, when a contact operation for the root image is received by a finger of the user, the root image based on a position in the root image where the contact operation is performed; specifying the classification item on the basis of a result of the analysis of the root image; and retrieving the one or more related images on the basis of a degree of relation calculated on the basis of the specified classification item.

16. An information processing apparatus comprising:
-
a display means for displaying an image; an operation-input receiving means for receiving an operation input of a user; and a display control means for performing, when the operation-input receiving means receives a predetermined operation for a root image displayed on the display means, display control for causing the display means to display one or more related images related to the root image, wherein the display control means calculates degrees of relation between all images that could be the root image or one of the related images on the basis of one or more classification items, the display control means retrieves the one or more related images out on the basis of the degrees of relation between the root image and the related images and causes the display means to display the retrieved one or more related images, and when the operation-input receiving means receives a contact operation for the root image by a finger of the user, the display control means analyzes the root image based on a position in the root image where the contact operation is performed, specifies the classification item on the basis of a result of the analysis, and retrieves the one or more related images on the basis of a degree of relation calculated on the basis of the specified classification item.
