TIME SERIES DATA RETRIEVAL DEVICE, TIME SERIES DATA RETRIEVAL METHOD, PROGRAM AND RECORD MEDIUM

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a time series data retrieval device allowing easy and exhaustive designation of characteristics of time series data intended by a retriever. SOLUTION: This time series data retrieval device has: a time series data storage part storing the time series data; a figure input part for inputting a figure; a deformation rule input part for inputting a deformation rule for deforming the inputted figure; a retrieval part retrieving the time series data stored in the time series data storage part by calculating adaptability between deformation figure data obtained by deforming the figure inputted by the figure input part according to the deformation rule inputted from the figure deformation rule input part, and the time series data stored in the time series data storage part; and an output part outputting calculation result data of the retrieval part.
