That is, the ranking calculation unit 220 calculates a second ranking based on a second parametric number limited to a predetermined attribute from the first parametric number.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3 (A), when the attribute of the area is a ranking attribute, the ranking calculation unit 220 determines the number of other singers associated with the singer A and the acquired marking information. The first ranking with a parameter of n is calculated as a national ranking (or overall ranking). Then, the ranking calculation unit 220 extracts, for example, marking information having attribute information of geographical attributes of “Tokyo” and “Minato Ward” from the acquired marking information, and associates the marking information with the extracted marking information, for example. A second ranking reflecting the scoring results of the singer A who has the number of other singers and the number of the singers A as a parameter is calculated respectively.

  FIG. 3 (A) shows the national ranking as the first ranking, the “Tokyo” ranking as the second ranking, and the “Minato Ward” ranking for the singer A who has sung the music data “manishite” It shows a scoring image with.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3 (B), when the gender attribute is a ranking attribute, the ranking calculation unit 220 generates the number of other singers associated with the singer A and the acquired scoring information. The first ranking reflecting the scoring result of the singer A is calculated as the overall ranking. In the first ranking, the ranking calculation unit 220 only differs in the standard name to be calculated, and basically, the national ranking and the calculation result are the same.

  Then, the ranking calculation unit 220 extracts, for example, scoring information having attribute information of the gender of “male” from the scoring information, and the other singer and singer A who are associated with the extracted scoring information. The second ranking reflecting the scoring result of the singer A is calculated with the number as a parameter. However, when the obtained rating information does not have gender attribute information, the ranking calculation unit 220 excludes the rating information and calculates the second ranking.

  FIG. 3 (B) shows a scoring image of the overall ranking as the first ranking and the "male" ranking as the second ranking, for the singer A who has sung the music data "manly" ing.

  Similarly, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, when the attribute of age (age) or occupation is a ranking attribute, the ranking calculation unit 220 associates the singer A with the acquired scoring information. Similarly to the national ranking, the first ranking with the number of other singers as a parameter is calculated as the overall ranking.

  Then, the ranking calculation unit 220 extracts, for example, scoring information having attribute information of "30's" or "student" from the scoring information, and sings with other singers associated with the extracted scoring information. The second ranking reflecting the scoring result of the singer A is calculated with the number of the person A as a parameter. However, when each acquired scoring information does not have attribute information of age or occupation, the second ranking is calculated excluding the scoring information.
