Abstract
Provided are a device for a digital assay of targets according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure and a method using the same. The digital assay method of targets according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes acquiring an image for a plurality of microdroplets, predicting at least one region based on the image for the plurality of microdroplets using an artificial neural network-based prediction model configured to segment at least one region among positive microdroplets, negative microdroplets, and atypical microdroplets, with the image for the plurality of microdroplets as an input, determining a number for the plurality of microdroplets based on the at least one region, and providing quantitative data of targets based on the number for the plurality of microdroplets.
