Abstract
Methods and systems are provided which include configurations for the reassigning unit locations of a classification matrix at which two or more classification regions overlap as non-classification regions. In addition, methods and systems are provided which include configurations for mathematically creating classification regions which may be characterized by values which more accurately correspond to measured values of particles. Other embodiments of methods and systems include configurations for acquiring data corresponding to measurable parameters of a particle and identifying a location within a classification matrix to which at least some of the data corresponds. Such methods and systems further include configurations for translating either the data corresponding to the identified unit location or a target space located at known locations within the classification matrix a preset number of predetermined coordinate paths until a conclusion that the particle may be classified to particular particle category or a reject class is attained.
