Abstract: A model constructed by a training process using the technique of deep learning using the training data including images created from a large number of chromatograms and correct peak information is previously stored in a trained model storage section. When chromatogram data for a target sample acquired with an LC measurement unit are inputted, an image creator converts the chromatogram into an image and creates an input image in which one of the two areas divided by the chromatogram curve as the boundary in the image is filled. A peak position estimator inputs the pixel values of the input image into a trained model using a neural network, and obtains the position information of the starting point and/or ending point of the peak and a peak detection confidence as the output. A peak determiner determines the starting point and/or ending point of each peak based on the peak detection confidence.
