Abstract(in English) In this research, we propose a method to automatically determine whether cause-result expressions extracted from summary of financial statements are unexpected or not. For example, the result expression that “Sales of drinking paper containers has increased” with respect to the cause expression that "due to heat wave" is determined as an unexpectedness cause-result expression. Although it can be easily imagined that sales of air conditioners and beer will increase in the case of heat wave, it is difficult to imagine that the sales of “drinking paper containers” may increase. Our method determines unexpectedness by using the conditional probability with the word contained in the result expression co-occurring with “heat wave”, and the score of important keywords contained in the cause-result expression.
