Recently, research and development of KANSEI retrieval algorithms are have been carried out. Thes algorithms use retrievals of multimedia contents based on individual criteria of similarity or impression about contents. However, effective conceptual models for building these algorithms aren't still established. There is no support environment for design and prototyping of these algorithms, even though researchers understand the necessity of it. In this paper, we propose a conceptual model for design of KANSEI retrieval algorithm based on a framework of KANSEI hierarchy. We propose a software platform for prototyping KANSEI retrieval algorithms based on the conceptual model. We show an availability evaluation of our software platform by comparing a development with our platform to a development without our platform about algorithm development coding cost.
