To provide an information processing apparatus, a particle sorting system, a program, and a particle sorting method that practice a spectral type analysis usable for sorting particles. The information processing apparatus according to an aspect of the present technology includes: an analysis unit; a learning unit; and a discrimination unit. The analysis unit calculates fluorophore information indicating respective amounts of luminescence of a plurality of types of fluorophores on the basis of detection data indicating amounts of luminescence of fluorescence at respective wavelength bands, the fluorescence having been emitted from a particle irradiated with excitation light, discriminates whether or not to treat the particle as a process target in accordance with the fluorophore information, and generates teaching data by associating a result of the discrimination with the detection data. The learning unit applies a machine learning algorithm to the teaching data, learns a characteristic of the detection data discriminated as the process target, and generates dictionary data including a result of the learning. The discrimination unit discriminates whether or not the particle whose detection data has been acquired is the process target on the basis of the dictionary data when the detection data is supplied.

Information processing apparatus, particle sorting system, program, and particle sorting method

In one example embodiment, an information processing apparatus causes a display device to display a first image from images associated with an observation target object. The images include the first image and a second image which corresponds to an annotation mark. In this embodiment, the information processing apparatus also causes the display device to display the annotation mark corresponding to the second image. In this embodiment, the displayed annotation mark overlaps the first image.

Information processing apparatus, method and computer-readable medium

To provide an information processing apparatus and an information processing method capable of easily calculating an error amount included in a measurement value. An information processing apparatus includes: an extraction unit configured to extract each parameter variation that affects fluorescence intensity that is measured when a particle is irradiated with a light beam, from a database on the basis of a measurement condition; and a computation unit configured to generate a calculation formula representing an error amount included in the fluorescence intensity on the basis of the extracted each parameter variation.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program

In one example embodiment, an information processing apparatus, for an observed image associated with an observation target object (e.g., a section of biological tissue), associates and stores position information and observation magnification information. In this embodiment, the information processing apparatus causes a display device to: (i) display an image associated with the observation target object; (ii) indicate the first positional information of the first observed image; and (iii) indicate the first observation magnification information of the first observed image.

An information processing apparatus includes a connection unit, a processing execution unit, a setting unit, and a controller. The connection unit is capable of connecting input apparatuses that output operation information for executing an operation for an image displayed on a screen. The processing execution unit is capable of executing processing corresponding to the operation information on the image. The setting unit sets one of the input apparatuses as a main input apparatus, and sets the other input apparatuses as secondary input apparatuses. The controller performs control such that execution of the processing for the image by the processing execution unit based on the operation information from the input apparatus set as the main input apparatus is validated, and execution of the processing for the image by the processing execution unit based on the operation information from the input apparatuses set as the secondary input apparatuses is invalidated.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, program, and information processing system

In one example embodiment, an information processing apparatus generates and causes a display device to display a first thumbnail image which is associated with annotation information. Using a size of the first thumbnail image, the information processing apparatus determines a display size of a first annotation which corresponds to the annotation information. Using the determined display size, the information processing apparatus determines a second annotation. In one example embodiment, the information processing apparatus causes a display device to display the determined second annotation overlapping the first thumbnail image.

A pathological image and a primary diagnosis result are obtained from a first terminal via a network, the first terminal being of a first user, the primary diagnosis result being a diagnosis result about the pathological image by the first user. The obtained pathological image and the primary diagnosis result are provided to at least one second terminal via the network, the one second terminal being of at least one second user. A browsing history and an opinion of the second user are obtained from the second terminal via the network, the browsing history at least including information on a displayed area in the pathological image, the opinion of the second user being about the primary diagnosis result based on observation of the pathological image by the second user. The obtained browsing history is estimated, and a reliability score of the obtained opinion is generated.

In one example embodiment, an information processing apparatus causes a display device to display a first image in a display range. In this embodiment, the first image is from images associated with an observation target object. The images include a first image, a second image, and a third image. In response to a request to change the display range, the information processing apparatus changes the display range at a first speed, and causes the display range to display the second image. In response to a request to terminate the change of the display range, the information processing apparatus changes the display range at a deceleration speed, and causes the display range to display the third image.
