## Abstract

A feature term classification method executed by a processor included in an information processing apparatus including a display device and a memory, the feature term classification method includes extracting a feature term from a Web page displayed on a screen of the display device; executing image searching using the extracted feature term; classifying the feature term based on whether an image has been detected as information corresponding to the feature term in the image searching; storing the information corresponding to the feature term in the memory; when a new feature term has been input, extracting a Web page corresponding to the new feature term from the stored information corresponding to the feature terms; and displaying the extracted Web page.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A feature term classification method executed by a processor included in an information processing apparatus including a display device and a memory, the feature term classification method comprising;
extracting a feature term from a Web page displayed on a screen of the display device;
executing image searching using the extracted feature term;
classifying the feature term based on whether an image has been detected as information corresponding to the feature term in the image searching;
storing the information corresponding to the feature term in the memory,
when a new feature term has been input, extracting a Web page corresponding to the new feature term from the stored information corresponding to the feature terms; and
displaying the extracted Web page.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The feature term classification method according to claim 1, wherein the storing includes
storing the feature term in the memory as a term representing an actual entity or place when an image has been detected as information corresponding to the feature term in the image searching.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The feature term classification method according to claim 2, wherein the classifying includes
deleting the feature term when an image has not been detected as information corresponding to the feature term in the image searching.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The feature term classification method according to claim 1,
wherein the stored information is information in which an identifier that identifies a Web page and a feature term are associated with each other for each of a plurality of Web pages.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The feature term classification method according to claim 1, wherein the classifying includes
displaying a place retrieved using the feature term as a sightseeing spot relevant to the Web page when an image has been detected as information corresponding to the feature term ire the image searching.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The feature term classification method according to claim 5,
wherein the sightseeing spot is displayed in a manner that the sightseeing spot can be added to a specific itinerary.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The feature term classification method according to claim 5,
wherein the place retrieved using the feature term is popped up on the Web page.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The feature term classification method according to claim 1,
wherein the image searching is executed using a predetermined term search site.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The feature term classification method according to claim 8, further comprising
determining whether the image has been extracted from a Web page of the predetermined term search site on which the image searching was executed using the extracted feature term.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The feature term classification method according to claim 8,
wherein the image is associated with a page of the predetermined term search site which corresponds to the feature term.

### Claim 11

An information processing apparatus comprising:
a display device;
a memory; and
a processor that is coupled to the display device and the memory, and is configured to,
extract a feature terror from a Web page displayed on a screen of the display device,
execute image searching using the extracted feature term,
classify the feature term based on whether an image has been detected as information corresponding to the feature term in the image searching,
storing the information corresponding to the feature term in the memory;
when a new feature term has been input, extract a Web page corresponding to the new feature term from the stored information corresponding to the feature terms, and
display the extracted Web page.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The information processing ,apparatus according to claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to
store the feature term in the memory as a term representing an actual entity or place when an image has been detected as information corresponding to the feature term in the image searching.
