Abstract

An image-feature-value calculating unit extracts an image feature value of an image of a cell candidate area. An NRBC discriminating unit uses a pre-trained discriminator to identify whether or not a target cell is shown in the cell candidate area, on the basis of the image feature value of the image of the cell candidate area. When the cell candidate area is identified as an area in which a target cell is shown, a discrimination result display unit displays the image of the cell candidate area. When the cell candidate area is identified as an area in which a target cell is shown, a discriminator training unit trains the discriminator by using the image feature value of the image of the cell candidate area as a training sample on the basis of a user input about whether or not a target cell is shown in the cell candidate area.
