The use of high-fidelity computational simulations promises to enable high-throughput hypothesis testing and optimisation of cancer therapies. However, increasing realism comes at the cost of increasing computational requirements. This…
Evolutionary algorithms have long been used for optimization problems where the appropriate size of solutions is unclear a priori. The applicability of this methodology is here investigated on the problem of designing a nano-particle (NP)…
Working towards the development of an evolvable cancer treatment simulator, the investigation of Differential Evolution was considered, motivated by the high efficiency of variations of this technique in real-valued problems. A basic DE…
One of many important features of the tumour microenvironment is that it is a place of active Darwinian selection where different tumour clones become adapted to the variety of ecological niches that make up the microenvironment. These…
In this survey article, a variety of systems modeling tumor growth are discussed. In accordance with the hallmarks of cancer, the described models incorporate the primary characteristics of cancer evolution. Specifically, we focus on…
In the present review, we describe three hot topics in cancer research such as circulating tumor cells, exosomes, and 3D environment models. The first section is dedicated to microfluidic platforms for detecting circulating tumor cells,…
Deploying motile nanosized particles, also known as ``nanobots'', in the human body promises to improve selectivity in drug delivery and reduce side effects. We consider a swarm of nanobots locating a single cancerous region and treating it…
Motile nanosized particles, or "nanobots", promise more effective and less toxic targeted drug delivery because of their unique scale and precision. We consider the case in which the cancer is "diffuse", dispersed such that there are…
With the increasingly available large-scale cancer genomics datasets, machine learning approaches have played an important role in revealing novel insights into cancer development. Existing methods have shown encouraging performance in…
Early detection of cancer is essential for timely diagnosis and improved patient outcomes. Among emerging technologies, intra-body nanoscale communication offers an innovative solution to identify molecular cues within the human…
Early cancer detection remains one of the most critical challenges in modern healthcare, where delayed diagnosis significantly reduces survival outcomes. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning, have…
Tumours behave as moving targets that can evade chemotherapeutic treatments by rapidly acquiring resistance via various mechanisms. In Balaz et al. (2021, Biosystems; 199:104290) we initiated the development of the agent-based open-ended…
This research presents a machine-learning approach for tumor detection in medical images using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The study focuses on preprocessing techniques to enhance image features relevant to tumor detection,…
The majority of cancer treatments end in failure due to Intra-Tumor Heterogeneity (ITH). ITH in cancer is represented by clonal evolution where different sub-clones compete with each other for resources under conditions of Darwinian natural…
Although nanorobots have been used as clinical prescriptions for work such as gastroscopy, and even photoacoustic tomography technology has been proposed to control nanorobots to deliver drugs at designated delivery points in real time, and…
A primary goal of modern cancer research is to characterize tumour growth and evolution, to improve clinical forecasting and individualized treatment. Agent-based models support this endeavour but existing models either oversimplify spatial…
Computational systems and methods are often being used in biological research, including the understanding of cancer and the development of treatments. Simulations of tumor growth and its response to different drugs are of particular…
The spatial distributions of different types of cells could reveal a cancer cell growth pattern, its relationships with the tumor microenvironment and the immune response of the body, all of which represent key hallmarks of cancer. However,…
Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in rigorous algorithms for the inference of cancer progression from genomic data. The motivations are manifold: (i) growing NGS and single cell data from cancer patients, (ii) need for novel…
Early detection is crucial for successful cancer treatment and increasing survivability rates, particularly in the most common forms. Ten different cancers have been identified in most of these advances that effectively use CNNs…
