1. A method for displaying cell count information, the method comprising:
obtaining a plurality of cell images generated by successively imaging cells;
obtaining a first cell count output by applying each of the plurality of cell images to a first counting model, the first counting model being for counting a number of cells included in an image;
obtaining a second cell count output by applying, to a second counting model, each of a plurality of cell images that are the same as the images for which the first cell count has been obtained, the second counting model being for counting a number of cells included in an image, and being different from the first counting model; and
displaying, on the basis of the first and second cell counts, a screen on which at least either of the first and second cell counts and a correlation between the first and second cell counts are visualized;
wherein the first counting model has a higher precision than the second counting model and a lower recall factor than the second counting model;
the displaying the screen comprises displaying the screen on the basis of a first-cell-count history including a plurality of first cell counts corresponding to the plurality of cell images and a second-cell-count history including a plurality of second cell counts corresponding to the plurality of cell images, and
a change in at least either of the first and second cell counts with respect to time and a change in the correlation with respect to time are visualized on the screen.
