Object or shape information representation method

A start node acquires coupled state information indicating a connectibility of nodes from a network. By executing simulation in accordance with a computational model constructed based on the coupled state information, the start node determines for each node a first link that transmitted an oscillation or a signal first to the node. A path that extends from a target node to the start node via the first link of intermediate nodes is selected.
