  • Publication number: 20210287349
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus that functions as a non-limiting example image processing apparatus includes a processor. When an original image drawn with horizontally-long first pixels is to be drawn by square second pixels, the processor generates two intermediate image data in each of which the number of second pixels is 1.2 times the number of first pixels of the original image data, by generating a second area formed with six (6) second pixels arranged in a horizontal direction for each of first areas that are formed dividing the original image by every five (5) first pixels arranged in the horizontal direction, and outputs the two intermediate image data to a display control device. The display control device generates output image data by synthesizing the two intermediate image data, and outputs the generated output image data to a display.

  • Patent number: 11112391
    Abstract: A degree of similarity in the peak pattern between a mass spectrum obtained for an unknown target substance in a sample and a mass spectrum of a known specific substance is calculated (S4). If the degree of similarity is within a range of 80-60% (“No” in S6), the ratio between the signal intensities at two mass-to-charge ratios characteristic of the specific substance is calculated and compared with a reference value (S7 and S8). If the intensity ratio exceeds the reference value, the target substance is likely to be the specific substance. Therefore, as in the case where the degree of similarity is equal to or higher than 80%, it is concluded that the specific substance is contained in the sample (S10).

  • Patent number: 10607722
    Abstract: Provided is a system for helping an operator determine the target ion, collision energy and other analysis conditions. A chromatogram selected by an operator is displayed in a chromatogram display area of an MRM measurement parameter determination window. When the operator selects a point on this chromatogram, the name of a target compound which is registered in an event linked with a range of time including the selected point in time is displayed on a compound name display area. A plurality of mass spectra collected at that point in time are also displayed in a mass spectra display area in a vertically arranged form, using the same scale on the mass axis and the same scale on the intensity axis, with the scales of their mass axes aligned with each other in the vertical direction. The operator can then check whether the selected peak corresponds to the target compound.
