## Abstract

An information processor includes a keyword acquisition section configured to acquire a keyword; a first acquisition section configured to acquire information on a description of the acquired keyword from a database; a summary creating section configured to summarize the description to create a summary; an extracting section configured to extract, from the description, at least one element that is not contained in the summary; an output section configured to output the at least one element that is not contained in the summary to a user, and to output the summary to the user after outputting the at least one element that is not contained in the summary to the user; and a profile creating section configured to create a user profile of the user in accordance with an input indicative of an interest of the user.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An information processor comprising:
a keyword acquisition section configured to acquire a keyword;
a first acquisition section configured to acquire information on a description of the acquired keyword, from a database;
a summary creating section configured to summarize the description to create a summary;
an extracting section configured to extract, from the description, at least one element that is not contained in the summary;
an output section configured to output the at least one element that is not contained in the summary to a user, and to output the summary to the user after outputting the at least one element that is not contained in the summary to the user; and
a profile creating section configured to create a user profile of the user in accordance with an input indicative of an interest of the user.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The information processor according to claim 1, wherein the keyword acquisition section is configured to acquire the keyword related to a current position of the user.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The information processor according to claim 1, wherein:
the user is at least one occupant of a vehicle;
the information processor further includes a second acquisition section configured to acquire the number of the at least one occupant of the vehicle; and
a condition, under which the output section starts outputting the at least one element that is not contained in the summary, varies depending on the number of the at least one occupant acquired by the second acquisition section.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The information processor according to claim 3 further comprising:
a third acquisition section configured to acquire a conversation frequency of the at least one occupant of the vehicle, wherein
in a case where the acquired number of the at least one occupant is two or more, the output section starts outputting the at least one element that is not contained in the summary after the acquired conversation frequency becomes lower than a specified frequency.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The information processor according to claim 3, wherein in a case where the acquired number of the at least one occupant is one, the output section starts outputting the at least one element that is not contained in the summary after the keyword is acquired.
