ABSTRACT:
A document information classification method and apparatus for classifying a document group and arranging a classified result hierarchically on the basis of key words given to the document group and words appearing in documents without dependence on a prescribed classification system. The document group of a document data base and a key word group given to each document of a key word data base are managed by a data management unit. A document classification unit classifies documents into folders on the basis of individual key words and stores them. The folders having similar document groups are integrated. Whether the integration is effective or not is judged upon integration. Whether the inside of the integrated folder and the inside of unintegrated folders can be classified in detail or not is judged and a hierarchical classification system is prepared. A classified result is produced in CRT by a classified result output unit to provide environment in which a user can read out the classified result.
