SENSING OF BIOLOGICAL CELLS IN A SAMPLE FOR CELL TYPE IDENTIFICATION

Abstract:

A cell sampler is configured to sense, with the sensors, physical phenomena of biological cells in a sample receiver; and transmit, to processing apparatus, sensor-data generated from the sensing of the biological cells. Processing is configured to: receive, from the cell sampler, the sensor-data; identify, using the sensor-data, individual cells of the biological cells; for each individual cell: generate, using the sensor-data, a cell type for the individual cell; generate, using the sensor-data, a feature vector for the individual cell; classify, using the sensor-data, at least some cell types as uncommon; for each uncommon cell type: access the feature vectors of individual cells of the uncommon cell type; generate bootstrap vectors for the uncommon cell type by applying noise to the feature vectors of individual cells of the uncommon cell type; and generate a cell-corpus by aggregating the bootstrap and feature vectors.
