Sparse input neural networks to differentiate 32 primary cancer types based on somatic point mutations
2020-05-15
Abstract excerpt
This paper aims to differentiate cancer types from primary tumour samples based on somatic point mutations (SPM). Primary cancer site identification is necessary to perform site-specific and potentially targeted treatment. Current methods like histopathology/lab-tests cannot accurately determine cancers origin, which results in empirical patient treatment and poor survival rates. The availability of large deoxyrib...
