Bi-exponential 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. A method according to a particular embodiment is to detect light from particles in a flow stream and generate a data plot of the measured values of the detected light, each of which has a population of particles. Generating a data plot that contains one or more regions, computing the set of vertices that form the boundaries of each region in the data plot, and the algorithm transformation associated with each vertice in the set of vertices. Identifying the type and generating a bitmap of each region of the particle so that the bitmap of each region contains a set of vertices corresponding to the vertices of each region in the data plot, and the bitmap of each region. Includes identifying algorithmic transformations to apply to each vertex in. Systems and integrated circuit devices (eg, field programmable gate arrays) with programming to generate bitmaps by the subject method are also provided.
