INFORMATION EXTRACTION SUPPORT DEVICE, INFORMATION EXTRACTION SUPPORT METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT

An information extraction support device includes a receptor, a pattern generator, a data generator, and an output controller. The receptor receives input of a first training example for learning a model used in at least one of extraction of information and extraction of a relation between a plurality of pieces of information, and clue information indicating a basis on which the first training example is used for learning. The pattern generator generates a supervised pattern for generating a training example used for learning, using the first training example and the clue information. The data generator generates a second training example using the supervised pattern. The output controller outputs the second training example and the clue information that is used to generate the supervised pattern having generated the second training example.
