Patent ID: 11861889
Assignee: THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G  C | IPC C  G

Claim 15:
16. A logic circuit for outputting a classification or recognition of at least one target object among one or more observed objects using a classification model and one or more time-series electrical signals output from one or more flow cytometers without generation of an image:
(a) wherein the one or more flow cytometers comprises;
(i) at least one light source configured to illuminate the one or more observed objects with a light to yield at least one electromagnetic wave;
(ii) at least one flow path configured to permit the one or more observed objects to flow therethrough;
(iii) a light-receiving unit comprising one or more sensors, wherein the one or more sensors is configured to (i) receive the at least one electromagnetic wave from the one or more observed objects and (ii) convert the at least one electromagnetic wave into one or more time-series electrical signals; and
(iv) an optical element having a plurality of regions with different optical characteristics being disposed along a light path between the at least one light source and the light-receiving unit; and

(b) wherein the classification model is trained based on the one or more time-series electrical signals from the one or more flow cytometers which comprises one or more compressed temporal signals comprising spatial information corresponding to the one or more observed objects.
