Abstract:
A biological sound analyzing apparatus is provided with: an obtaining device configured to obtain first biological sound information, which indicates a change in biological sounds with time; a processing device configured to generate second biological sound information by performing a first process of enhancing first noise information, which indicates noise included in the biological sounds, on the first biological sound information; a calculating device configured to calculate correlation information, which indicates a correlation in adjacent periods of the second biological sound information; and an outputting device configured to output second noise information, which indicates continuous noise included in the biological sounds, on the basis of the correlation coefficient. This makes it possible to analyze continuous noise included in the obtained biological sounds.
