Abstract
Improve the quality of generated topics by utilizing metadata attached to document data. [Solution] The topic generation device (1) includes an acquisition unit (11) that acquires document data relating to multiple documents, a first feature generation unit (12) that generates first feature quantities for multiple documents, a knowledge graph generation unit (13) that generates a knowledge graph, a second feature generation unit (14) that generates second feature quantities for multiple documents based on the knowledge graph, a feature merging unit (15) that combines the first feature quantities and the second feature quantities to generate a first combined feature quantity, a clustering unit (16) that generates multiple document clusters, and a topic generation unit (17) that generates topics for multiple documents.
