  • Publication number: 20240151414
    Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus includes a heat source side unit including a compressor, a load side unit including a load side heat exchanger, a fan provided in the load side unit, an air direction adjuster that is provided in the load side unit and that adjusts an air direction, and a controller that controls the compressor, the fan, and the air direction adjuster. The controller determines whether an air-conditioned space is being ventilated and executes, in a case where the air-conditioned space is being ventilated, a fixed-swing mode in which a swing operation in which the air direction is changed over time by controlling the air direction adjuster is forcefully performed. At a time when the fixed-swing mode is to be entered, the controller activates the compressor when the compressor is stopped and continues operation of the compressor when the compressor is operating.

  • Patent number: 11861826
    Abstract: At the time of superimposing and aligning a stained image and a mass spectrometric (MS) image obtained for the same sample, an image display processor displays, on the superimposed images, grid lines (62) at the spacing corresponding to an operation of a grid spacing adjustment slider (63). When an operator depresses an image deformation range “SET” button (64), specifies an arbitrary area on the superimposed images with a mouse, and then depresses a “SELECT” button (65), an image deformation range specification receiving section determines an image deformation range. When the operator selects an intersection (grid point) of the grid lines (62) within the image deformation range and performs an operation of moving the intersection point to an arbitrary position, an image deformation processor deforms an image included in the image deformation range in accordance with the operation.

  • Patent number: 11776799
    Abstract: An analysis operator checks an optical microscopic image obtained with an imaging mass microscope and indicates a color characteristic of an area which the analysis operator is focusing on. An optical microscopic image feature extractor calculates luminance distribution data in the indicated color. An image position adjustment processor performs a position adjustment process on a luminance distribution image derived from the optical microscopic image and an MS imaging graphic, while a resolution adjuster equalizes their spatial resolutions. A statistical analysis processor calculates a coefficient of spatial correlation between the luminance distribution image and the MS imaging graphic for each mass-to-charge ratio. Based on the calculated correlation coefficients, an analysis result display processor extracts a mass-to-charge ratio which shows an ion intensity distribution similar to the luminance distribution image. and displays it on a display unit.

  • Patent number: 11651603
    Abstract: When a user designates a region of interest for a plurality of groups targeted for difference analysis in a microscopic observation image of a sample, an m/z candidate search unit searches for candidates for m/z presumed to differ, based on collected mass spectral data. An intensity histogram creation unit processing unit creates and displays a graph showing a frequency distribution of peak intensities at measurement points included in the ROI of the groups for each of the m/z candidates. If this graph exhibits multimodality, the data distribution is not suitable for a statistical hypothesis test. An intensity range determination unit limits an intensity range in accordance with a user's instruction. Then, ROI correction unit corrects the ROI so as to include only measurement points with peak intensities within the limited intensity range. A test processing unit performs a statistical hypothesis test using the data corresponding to the corrected ROI.
