A pulse wave analysis apparatus including a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and the processor configured to execute a process, the process including extracting, from each of a plurality of captured images of a subject, a plurality of image areas corresponding to each of a plurality of parts of the subject respectively, generating pieces of waveform data corresponding to the plurality of parts based on an image analysis for the plurality of image areas, each of the pieces of waveform data indicating a pulse wave of the subject, calculating a first matching degree between the pieces of waveform data, and determining whether a noise is included in the pieces of waveform data based on the first matching degree.
