Abstract
The various interplaying variables of tumor growth remain key questions in cancer research, in particular what makes such a growth malignant and what are possible therapies to stop the growth and prevent re-growth. Given the complexity and heterogeneity of the disease, as well as the steadily growing set of publicly available big data sets, there is an urgent need for approaches to make sense out of these open data sets. Machine learning methods for tumor growth profiles and model validation can be of great help here, particularly, discrete multi-agent approaches.
In this paper we provide an overview of current machine learning approaches used for cancer research with the main focus of highlighting the necessity of in silico tumor growth modeling.
