A causality recognizing apparatus includes a candidate vector generating unit configured to receive a causality candidate for generating a candidate vector representing a word sequence forming the candidate; a context vector generating unit generating a context vector representing a context in which noun-phrases of cause and effect parts of the causality candidate appear; a binary pattern vector generating unit, an answer vector generating unit and a related passage vector generating unit, generating a word vector representing background knowledge for determining whether or not there is causality between the noun-phrase included in the cause part and the noun-phrase included in the effect part; and a multicolumn convolutional neural network learned in advance to receive these word vectors and to determine whether or not the causality candidate has causality.
