Patent attributes
An analysis data processing method for processing analysis data collected with an analyzing device for each of a plurality of samples, by applying an analytical technique using statistical machine learning to multidimensional analysis data formed by output values obtained from a plurality of channels of a multichannel detector provided in the analyzing device, the method including: acquiring a non-linear regression or non-linear discrimination function expressing analysis data obtained for known samples; calculating a contribution value of each of the output values obtained from the plurality of channels forming the analysis data of the known samples, to the acquired non-linear regression or non-linear discrimination function, based on a differential value of the non-linear regression function or non-linear discrimination function; and identifying one or more of the plurality of channels of the detector, which are to be used for processing analysis data obtained for an unknown sample, based on the contribution value.
