Abstract

A fracture structure is grown from a plurality of starting points. A fractal structure, grown from respective starting points and interconnected by interactive growths, forms a neural network. A growth speed originated at a specific starting point is determined by the probability of a material reaching a grown portion from a remote location by means of a diffusion process and the probability of a growth promoting factor reaching a grown portion by means of a diffusion process from a portion grown from a starting point other than the specific one. Anisotropy is introduced into a space in which a fractal structure is to be grown, as required.
