BIEXPONENTIAL TRANSFORMATION FOR PARTICLE SORTERS

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure include methods for generating a bitmap from a data plot of light detected from particles in a flow stream. Methods according to certain embodiments include detecting light from particles in a flow stream, generating a data plot of measurements of the detected light, where the data plot includes one or more regions each having a population of particles, calculating a set of vertices that form a boundary for each region in the data plot, identifying a type of algorithmic transformation associated with each vertex in the set of vertices, generating a bitmap of each region of particles such that the bitmap of each region includes a set of vertices that correspond to the vertices of each region in the data plot and identifying an algorithmic transformation for applying to each vertex in the bitmap of each region. Systems and integrated circuit devices (e.g., field programmable gate arrays) having programming for generating a bitmap according to the subject methods are also provided.
