Patent ID: 8581927

Claim:
A method for reconstructing multidimensional particle analysis data clusters on a computing device, the multidimensional particle analysis data including data for each particle for at least three dimensions, comprising: obtaining, on the computing device, a set of segmented two-dimensional projections corresponding to multidimensional particle analysis data associated with a biological sample of particles, each segmented two-dimensional projection in the set being a projection of the same multidimensional particle analysis data as the other two-dimensional projections in the set, each segmented two-dimensional projection in the set being a projection on two dimensions that are a different pair of dimensions than any of the other two-dimensional projections in the set, each segmented two-dimensional projection having a segmentation which divides the data in the two-dimensional projection into one or more two-dimensional clusters each associated with corresponding particle populations in the biological sample; and reconstructing, on the computing device, a segmentation of the particle analysis data into one or more multidimensional clusters based on the two-dimensional clusters in at least two different projections in the set of segmented two-dimensional projections, the one or more multidimensional clusters being defined in at least three dimensions.
