Machine Learning Approaches to Metastasis Bladder and Secondary Pulmonary Cancer Classification Using Gene Expression Data
Lung cancer and bladder cancer can be causally linked, so distinguishing between lung and bladder cancer tissues is critical for accurate diagnosis. The goal of this study was to determine the best method for classifying these tissues based on gene expression analysis data.
