Abstract:
A biological model creation apparatus sets a plurality of control points respectively corresponding to a plurality of target points set on a plurality of valve annuli of a specified heart, on a plurality of valve annuli in a mesh model of a heart. Then, the biological model creation apparatus determines the positions of the control points in the mesh model on the basis of a first and second evaluation value regarding the positions of the plurality of control points. The first evaluation value indicates a degree of matching to relative positions among target points belonging to the same valve annulus. The second evaluation value indicates a degree of matching to relative positions among target points belonging to different valve annuli. Then, the biological model creation apparatus deforms the mesh model such that the positions of the plurality of control points coincide with the positions of their corresponding target points.
