[0002] In recent years, quality control in manufacturing and sales industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, and petrochemicals requires quality analysis of raw materials, intermediate products, and final products, and analytical equipment such as chromatography, spectrophotometers, and automatic titrators are widely used in this process.

[0003] Generally, each analytical instrument is connected to a computer, and software for displaying data obtained by the analytical instrument as a report is often installed or attached to the analytical instrument (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1 below).

[0004] https: / / www.jeol.co.jp / products / scientific / gcms / JMS-Q1600GC.html

[0005] However, the software for these analytical instruments is developed in-house by each manufacturer, and its GUI and data format differ from those of other analytical instruments, especially those of other manufacturers. As a result, managing all of these instruments collectively poses a significant burden for users.

[0006] On the other hand, data falsification and errors in this quality control process have become a social problem, and manufacturers are bearing the heavy costs of quality control, which is also a contributing factor to rising prices.

[0007] In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer, a physicochemical analyzer system, an extracted data creation method for a physicochemical analyzer, a recording medium having recorded thereon an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer, and an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analyzer, which enable high quality control even when analytical equipment that is not fully compatible with high quality control processes is used.

[0012] In addition, in this respect, although not limited thereto, it is preferable that the image data be in at least one of JPEG format, BMP format, PNG format, GIF format, and TIFF format.

[0013] In addition, although not limited to this aspect, it is preferable that the electronic document data be in PDF format.

[0014] In addition, in this aspect, it is preferable, but not limited to, to include a step of acquiring template single sample data before the step of recording the analysis result data.

[0015] In addition, in this aspect, although not limited thereto, the step of recording template data is preferably created based on single sample data.

[0016] Furthermore, in this respect, although not limited thereto, it is preferable that the analysis result data be data obtained by at least one of an electrochemical analysis device, a photometric analysis device, an electromagnetic analysis device, a separation analysis device, a thermal analysis device, a thermal measurement device, and a dedicated measurement device.

[0017] In addition, in this respect, although not limited thereto, it is preferable that the analysis result data is multi-sample data.

[0018] Furthermore, a physicochemical analysis instrument system according to another aspect of the present invention is a physicochemical analysis instrument system comprising a physicochemical analysis instrument and a computer connected to the physicochemical analysis instrument, in which an extracted data creation program for the physicochemical analysis instrument is recorded on a recording medium of the computer for executing the steps of recording analysis result data, recording template data, and creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data.

[0019] In addition, a method for creating extracted data for a physical and chemical analytical instrument according to another aspect of the present invention includes the steps of recording analysis result data, recording template data, and creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data.

[0020] In addition, a recording medium according to another aspect of the present invention has recorded thereon an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analysis instrument, which causes a computer to execute the steps of recording analysis result data, recording template data, and creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data.

[0021] In addition, an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analysis instrument according to another aspect of the present invention is an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analysis instrument equipped with a computer, in which an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analysis instrument is recorded on a recording medium of the computer for executing the steps of recording analysis result data, recording template data, and creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data.

[0022] As described above, the present invention can provide an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer, a physicochemical analyzer system, an extracted data creation method for a physicochemical analyzer, a recording medium having recorded thereon an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer, and an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analyzer, which enable high quality control even when using analytical equipment that is not fully compatible with high quality control processes.

[0023] Fig. 1 is a diagram showing an overview of a physicochemical analyzer system according to an embodiment; Fig. 2 is a diagram showing an example of analysis result data according to an embodiment; Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of template data extracted by a method for creating extracted data for a physicochemical analyzer according to an embodiment; and Fig. 4 is a diagram showing an example of extracted data extracted by a method for creating extracted data for a physicochemical analyzer according to an embodiment.

[0024] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention can be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments and examples shown below.

[0025] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an outline of a physicochemical analysis instrument system S (hereinafter referred to as "this system") according to this embodiment. As shown in this diagram, this system S is a physicochemical analysis instrument system comprising physicochemical analysis instruments AE and a computer connected to the physicochemical analysis instruments AE. More specifically, each physicochemical analysis instrument AE is connected to an instrument computer AC, which is connected to a remote data extraction computer DC via a telecommunications network N such as the Internet. This system S is also connected to a certification computer CC, which creates analysis result certificate data. In other words, these computers are capable of sending and receiving data via the telecommunications network N.

[0026] In the present system S, a computer storage medium stores an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analysis instrument (hereinafter referred to as "the program") for causing the computer to execute the steps of (S1) recording analysis result data, (S2) recording template data, and (S3) creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data. The program is preferably, but not limited to, stored in the data extraction computer DC.

[0027] As described above, this program is executed by a computer (information processing device), and specifically, is stored in a non-volatile recording medium such as a computer hard disk, and is read into a volatile recording medium such as a memory and executed as needed. That is, when this program is executed by a computer, it can realize an extracted data creation method for a physicochemical analytical instrument (hereinafter also simply referred to as "this method") that includes the steps of (S1) recording analysis result data, (S2) recording template data, and (S3) creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data.

[0028] In some cases, the system S may be configured as a standalone system consisting of only the physicochemical analytical equipment AE and the connected equipment computer AC, without being connected to a network. The program may be stored on the equipment computer AC and executed as needed. Specifically, the functions of the data extraction computer DC and the certification computer CC may be performed solely by the equipment computer AC. In the example shown in the figure, the data extraction computer DC and the certification computer CC may also be configured as a single computer.

[0029] In the above case, the program is recorded on a recording medium as described above, and the method is executed as needed, causing the computer to function as an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analyzer. Specifically, the extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analyzer is an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analyzer equipped with a computer, and a recording medium of the computer has recorded thereon an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer for executing the steps of recording analysis result data, recording template data, and creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data.

[0030] Unless otherwise specified, the computers used to run this program may be the equipment computer AC, the data extraction computer DC, or the certification computer CC, and may all have the same configuration. This configuration is not limited as long as it has the above functions, but it is preferable that it includes, but is not limited to, components of a typical computer, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a non-volatile recording medium such as a hard disk or flash memory, a volatile recording medium such as memory, a bus connecting these, input devices such as a keyboard or mouse, a display device such as a monitor, and communication devices such as a modem or ONU (Optical Network Unit) for connecting to a network.

[0031] The computer may be a personal computer such as a laptop or desktop computer, a server, or a mobile information terminal, which has become increasingly popular in recent years, specifically a smartphone or tablet. A typical mobile information terminal houses and integrates components such as the CPU and display device within a single cover, and a sensor is placed on the display device to function as a touch panel, making it extremely easy to use. In the case of a mobile information terminal, a program for executing the method may be recorded and displayed as an app on the mobile information terminal, and the method may be easily executed by launching the app.

[0032] Furthermore, as is clear from the above description, a system for realizing this method can be realized via a telecommunications network N such as the Internet. Specifically, it is possible to connect multiple computers via the telecommunications network N and have these different computers execute the steps of this method. For example, steps (S1) and (S2) can be performed by an equipment computer AC, and steps (S1) to (S3) can be executed by a data extraction computer DC. Of course, it is possible to adjust which computer executes these steps as appropriate.

[0033] Next, each step of the method executed by this program will be described in detail. This method is particularly useful, but not limited to, in the development and quality control of pharmaceuticals, foods, chemicals, petrochemical products, etc., using physicochemical analytical equipment AE, and can also be applied to blood analysis and clinical fields. Specific explanations will be given below.

[0034] First, this method includes a step of recording analysis result data (S1).

[0035] Furthermore, in this method, although not limited thereto, the analysis result data refers to analysis result data including information on the measurement results obtained by analysis by the physicochemical analytical equipment AE, as described above, and is recorded on a recording medium of the equipment computer AC, and is also transmitted to the data extraction computer DC via the telecommunications network N and recorded on a recording medium of the data extraction computer DC. However, the analysis result data may not be recorded on a recording medium of the equipment computer AC, but may be recorded only on a recording medium of the data extraction computer DC directly via the telecommunications network N.

[0036] Here, the term "physical and chemical analytical instrument" refers to an instrument capable of conducting physicochemical experiments and performing predetermined analyses. Specifically, data acquired by at least one of an electrochemical analyzer, a photometric analyzer, an electromagnetic analyzer, a separation analyzer, a thermal analyzer, a thermal measurement instrument, and a dedicated measurement instrument is preferred. However, as described above, the term is not limited to these exemplary instruments, as long as it is capable of conducting physicochemical experiments and performing predetermined analyses. Analysis result data is generated by a physicochemical analytical instrument AE. The data format of the analysis result data varies widely depending on the physicochemical analytical instrument AE and the software stored in the connected computer. In some cases, the data is not even saved as numerical data that can be processed numerically. Therefore, this method converts these diverse data formats into a predetermined format, facilitating data extraction in the steps described below, thereby improving data processing efficiency and data reliability. Figure 2 shows an example of analysis result data generated by a certain physicochemical analyzer being displayed on a monitor screen.

[0037] Examples of "electrochemical analysis devices" include, but are not limited to, titration devices, electrolysis devices, mass spectrometers, pH measurement devices, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) measurement devices, and ion concentration measurement devices.

[0038] Furthermore, examples of "photoanalytical instruments" include, for example, absorption spectrophotometers, emission spectrophotometers, fluorophotometers, Raman spectrophotometers, polarimeters, photoelectric spectrophotometers, colorimeters, etc. In particular, in the case of absorption spectrophotometers, more specific examples include, but are not limited to, ultraviolet spectrophotometers, visible spectrophotometers, infrared spectrophotometers, Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometers, and near-infrared spectrophotometers.

[0039] Furthermore, examples of "electromagnetic analysis devices" include X-ray analysis devices, mass analysis devices (GC / MS, LC / MS), magnetic resonance devices (NMR, MRI), Auger electron spectroscopy devices (AES), photoelectron spectroscopy devices (XPS, ESCA), etc., and in the case of X-ray analysis devices in particular, more specific examples include X-ray diffraction devices, X-ray fluorescence analysis devices, electron probe microanalyzers (EPMA), etc., but are not limited to these.

[0040] Furthermore, examples of "separation analysis devices" include, for example, liquid chromatographs, thin layer chromatographs, and supercritical fluid chromatographs. In particular, in the case of liquid chromatographs, more specific examples include gas chromatographs, high performance liquid chromatographs (HPLC), and ion chromatographs, but are not limited to these.

[0041] Furthermore, a more specific example of a "thermal analyzer" is a melting point measuring device, but is not limited to this.

[0042] Furthermore, examples of "dedicated measuring devices" include, but are not limited to, organic trace element analyzers, moisture measuring devices, density / specific gravity measuring devices, viscosity / viscoelasticity measuring devices, particle size / particle size distribution measuring devices, etc.

[0043] In this method, the analysis result data is preferably at least one of image data, text data, and electronic document data, but may be in any other format as long as it can be displayed visually on a screen such as a monitor. As described above, the analysis result data is obtained by processing the results obtained by the physicochemical analysis equipment AE using a computer. Therefore, having the data in at least one of the common file formats of image data, text data, and electronic document data has the advantage of being easy to handle.

[0044] Furthermore, in the case of "image data," any file format that allows a user to view the data as an image when printed or displayed on a screen such as a monitor may be used, and examples include, but are not limited to, JPEG, bitmap (BMP), PNG, GIF, and TIFF. When image data is displayed, information regarding the measurement items and the values ​​(measurements) of those measurement items can be seen, but it is only displayed as an image, and it is not easy to extract data directly from the image data. As will become clear from the description below, this method prepares for the acquisition of measurement data by using image recognition technology (e.g., OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology, etc.) on the image data.

[0045] In addition, as described above, text data is also preferred in this method. Text data is data (character data) that contains only information on letters, numbers, and symbols. Because text data is recorded according to a predetermined rule using spaces, commas, etc., it has the advantage of being easy to match the measurement items with the measurement values ​​and easy to read as data. Examples of text data include, but are not limited to, plain text format (TXT), rich text format (RTF), hypertext markup language format (HTML), extensible markup language format (XML), CSV format, etc. Note that in the case of text data, measurement item data and measurement value data are included in an easy-to-understand format, making it easy to create extracted data using this program.

[0046] Furthermore, in this method, although not limited to this, the electronic document data is data that can include information such as text information, image information, and layout, and is preferably in PDF format, for example. The PDF format has the advantage of allowing documents to be viewed in the same state regardless of the computer environment, and it may also be possible to embed text and read it as is. Note that PDF-format electronic document data is data that can include text data, image data, layout data, and the like, and may or may not include text data. If text data is not included, it is included in the image file, and the electronic document data referred to here means data that includes text data.

[0047] Furthermore, as described above, image files may be created using a device control program pre-recorded in the device computer AC. Alternatively, for example, the image file, text file, or electronic document file may be first recorded on the recording medium of the data extraction computer DC, and then the screen data of the data extraction computer DC may be transmitted directly to the device computer AC via a telecommunications network N using WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) technology. The device computer AC may then operate the device computer AC to record the image file on its recording medium, or the data may be recorded on the recording medium of the data extraction computer DC via the telecommunications network N. Even if the analysis result data is text data or electronic document data containing text data, the data may be displayed on the display device of the device computer AC and recorded directly as image data, such as by taking a screenshot. This allows for consistent processing of the data as simple image data without relying on the text format specific to physicochemical analytical instruments.

[0048] Furthermore, in cases where Web-RTC technology is used to directly display data from a remote data extraction computer DC on a monitor or other display device of a remote equipment computer AC, image data, text data, electronic document data, etc. transmitted from the data extraction computer DC can be displayed on a monitor or other display device of the equipment computer AC, with one or more of the image data, etc., being trimmed and combined from the displayed screen, and then newly created and recorded as separate image data. This has the advantage of eliminating clearly unnecessary information from the analysis result data and also reducing the burden of creating template data. While the equipment computer AC is used as an example in this case, it is also possible for the separate image data to be another computer operated by the user rather than the equipment computer AC. However, the separate image data is recorded on the recording medium of the data extraction computer DC as analysis result data for extraction.

[0049] In addition, in this method, although not limited thereto, the analysis result data may be generated by a peripheral device. Specifically, it is preferable to connect a peripheral device to the physicochemical analytical instrument AE or the instrument computer AC, and generate and record the analysis results output by the instrument as the analysis result data. For example, in recent years, printers have become capable of not only printing on paper but also outputting the above-mentioned electronic document data, specifically data in PDF format. Using such a printer as a peripheral device makes it possible to generate and record the analysis result data.

[0050] Furthermore, in this method, it is also possible to capture paper output or handwritten notes on paper (such as calibration record sheets, calibration certificates, etc.) (hereinafter referred to as "paper media") using a peripheral device such as a scanner and convert them into image data, text data, or electronic document files.

[0051] Furthermore, in this step of the method, it is preferable to apply OCR technology to the recorded image data, and after this processing, it is preferable to apply generative AI (e.g., LLM: Large Language Model, SSM: Small Language Model) technology. In this method, first, by using OCR technology, it is possible to attach text content data related to the content of the text and text position information data including position information of the text to the image data. However, with general OCR technology, even continuous character strings are broken down into individual characters for image recognition, so even if a discrimination error occurs, the character string may become meaningless. However, by further applying generative AI technology here, it is possible to correct misreadings caused by OCR technology and improve the accuracy while maintaining the text content data and text position information data. Although it is possible to extract text content data by reading only the generation AI, it is difficult to record the corresponding text position information data, which creates issues such as difficulty in reverse searching, as described below. Therefore, processing using OCR technology and the generation AI is important. In this case, when providing the generation AI technology, it is preferable to record both the original image data and image data (OCR image data) containing text position information data obtained by applying OCR technology on a computer recording medium and input these as prompts. In this way, the generation AI can correct the text content data in the OCR image data while referring to the original image.

[0052] This method also includes a step (S2) of recording template data. Here, "template data" refers to data containing information about the template, which serves as a model (template) for determining which measurement items to extract from the analysis result data and how to extract the measurement values ​​corresponding to those measurement items. Figure 3 shows an example of template data extracted by this method. This figure shows an example displayed on the screen of a display device when specific measurement items are extracted as measurement item data from the analysis result data shown in Figure 2, and the measurement values ​​of those measurement items are extracted as measurement data.

[0053] As is clear from the above description, the analysis result data includes at least one, and preferably a plurality of pairs of measurement items and corresponding measurement values ​​(measurement item pairs).

[0054] Incidentally, when the analysis result data is text data, it is relatively easy to extract the necessary data because the text content data is included therein, and the same is true for electronic document data to which text data is attached. However, when the analysis result data is image data or data in PDF format that does not include text data, although the measurement item set is included as information, it is merely saved as an image, and it is difficult to use it as data from which measurement values, etc. can be directly extracted. Therefore, in the case of image data, by converting the analysis result data into image data to which text content data is attached as described above, it becomes possible to extract the necessary information, such as measurement values.

[0055] In other words, the extracted data includes, through the above extraction, measurement item data containing at least information on the measurement items, and measurement value data containing information on the corresponding measurement values ​​(a pair of measurement item data and measurement value data is called measurement item pair data).

[0056] Furthermore, the extracted data preferably includes, in addition to the measurement item set data as described above, data including bibliographic information such as sample identification information, measurement conditions, dates, memos, etc. As a result, the extracted data preferably includes not only the measurement item set data as described above, but also bibliographic set data, specifically, sample identification information set data including information on sample identification information, measurement condition set data including information on measurement conditions, date set data including information on dates, memo set data including information on memos, etc.

[0057] Here, the "sample identification information set data" includes sample identification information item data indicating that the item is sample identification information, and sample identification information content data regarding the content of the sample identification information. By including sample identification information, it is possible to identify the sample that has been measured.

[0058] Furthermore, the "measurement condition set data" includes measurement condition item data, which indicates that the item is related to the measurement condition, and measurement condition content data, which includes information about the content of the measurement condition. It is very important to obtain information about the measurement conditions, such as the measurement temperature and measurement method.

[0059] The "date group data" includes date item data indicating the date on which the measurement was performed, and date content data including information on the specific content of the date. Identifying the date, along with the sample identification information, is important when identifying the subject on which the measurement was performed.

[0060] The "memo group data" includes memo item data indicating the memo item and memo content data including information about the memo content. By including this data, necessary information other than the above items can be left as a memo.

[0061] The template data in this step also includes data containing information about the items to be extracted (extraction item data). Specifically, this includes each item data containing information about the items to be extracted from the measurement item data and bibliographic group data, specifically, sample identification information item data, measurement condition item data, date item data, memo item data, etc. By including these in the template data, content data corresponding to these item data can be extracted from the analysis result data, and content data existing near this extraction item data, specifically, measurement value data, sample identification information content data, measurement condition content data, date content data, and memo content data, can be extracted. In other words, it can be said that the template data includes at least "extraction item data."

[0062] In this case, the template data preferably includes "extraction condition data" containing information about the extraction conditions for the extracted item data. Specifically, in a later step, the extracted item data can be extracted from the analysis result data, and after extracting this extracted item data, data corresponding to this item data can be searched for within the same analysis result data. For this reason, it is preferable for the template data to include extraction condition data. Note that the extraction condition is preferably information about the location where data is to be acquired, such as extracting data located to the right of the location information data of the extracted item data, or extracting data located below the location information data of the extracted item data.

[0063] In this case, it is preferable to create the template data based on the analysis result data, specifically while displaying the analysis result data on a display device. Creating the template data while displaying the analysis result data allows similar processing to be performed on similar analysis result data, and is particularly preferable when the analysis result data is image data, as this allows the position of items within the image data and the position of the content relative to those items to be specified in detail.

[0064] The step of recording template data in this method is preferably created based on "single sample data." As described above, template data contains information about the template of data to be extracted from analysis result data. When the physicochemical analytical instrument AE performs measurements on multiple samples (multiple samples) and obtains analysis result data, the template data contains information about the measurement item set for each of the multiple samples. In other words, when analysis result data contains information about multiple samples, there is a risk that data extracted from multiple samples may be mistakenly recognized as data from a single sample (single sample). Therefore, creating template data based on single sample data has the advantage of reducing this risk. As is clear from the above description, "single sample data" refers to data obtained from a single sample, and "multiple sample data" refers to data obtained from multiple samples.

[0065] Furthermore, although not limited to this, the method preferably includes a step (S0) of acquiring template single sample data before the step (S1) of recording analysis result data. The analysis result data includes information about the instrumental analysis results, and by extracting this information, extracted data can be created and recorded. Meanwhile, the acquisition of analysis result data often includes the results of multiple samples (test subjects) at once. More specifically, when measurements are performed using a single physicochemical analytical instrument AE, it is not uncommon for similar measurement items to be measured in parallel on multiple samples. Therefore, even when measurements are performed on multiple samples in parallel, confusion can be avoided by separating each measurement and storing it as single sample data.

[0066] Furthermore, in this method, although not limited thereto, the analysis result data may be multi-sample data. As described above, when operating the physicochemical analysis instrument AE, efficient measurements can be performed by continuously measuring multiple samples. Furthermore, by using multi-sample data, this processing can be performed collectively, which may enable more efficient data processing.

[0067] This method also includes a step (S3) of creating extracted data from the analysis result data based on the template data. As described above, creating extracted data from the analysis result data enables effective analysis and the creation of certificate data based on the extracted data. Figure 4 shows an example of the extracted data extracted in this step being displayed on the screen of a display device.

[0068] Specifically, in this step, the analysis result data is first searched for item data included in the template data, and content data corresponding to this item data is extracted. Specifically, item data, such as sample identification information item data, measurement condition item data, date item data, memo item data, and measurement item data, are searched for, and if found, corresponding content data, such as sample identification information content data, measurement condition content data, date content data, memo content data, and measurement value data, are recorded. Furthermore, in this case, when each item data is found, it is preferable to search for and record the content data according to the extraction condition data included in the template data defined for that item. This enables more accurate searches. In other words, the extracted data includes item data and corresponding content data.

[0069] This method also preferably, but not necessarily, includes a step (S4) of creating analysis result certificate data based on the extracted data. The "analysis result certificate data" refers to data containing information related to the analysis result certificate, and obtaining the extracted data makes it possible to issue an analysis result certificate based on this data. While this step can be performed by the data extraction computer DC, it is preferably performed by the certification computer CC. Using different computers for data extraction and certificate issuance has the advantage of preventing tampering and errors and maintaining high reliability.

[0070] Furthermore, although not limited to this, it is preferable that this method also executes a step (S5) of performing a reverse search on the analysis result data based on the extracted data. Specifically, if it becomes necessary to verify the content of the measurement after the measurement, a reverse search can be performed on the analysis result data to confirm the authenticity of the measurement items and their contents. Specifically, this step identifies the item data or content data to be reverse searched in the extracted data, reads the analysis result data from the recording medium, and searches for the item data or content data within the analysis result data. Note that in this case, if the analysis result data is text data or electronic document data, it contains text content data, but if it is image data, it often does not contain text data. Therefore, in the case of image data, it is preferable to target image data containing recorded text content data and text position information data when applying the above-mentioned OCR technology, etc., as the reverse search target. This has the advantage of enabling reverse search.

[0071] As described above, the present invention can provide an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer, a physicochemical analyzer system, an extracted data creation method for a physicochemical analyzer, a recording medium having recorded thereon an extracted data creation program for a physicochemical analyzer, and an extracted data creation device for a physicochemical analyzer, which enable high quality control even when using analytical equipment that is not fully compatible with high quality control processes.
