Artificial intelligence/machine learning involves the development of computer systems that perform tasks that would normally require human intelligence. AI/ML is used by people every day, for example, while using smart home devices or digital voice assistants. The use of AI/ML is also rapidly growing in biomedical research and health care. In a recent viewpoint paper, investigators at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey and Rutgers New Jersey Medical School (NJMS) explored how AI/ML will complement existing approaches focused on genome-protein sequence information, including identifying mutations in human tumors.
Stephen K. Burley, MD, DPhil, and collaborators published the study December 2 in the New England Journal of Medicine.
What is the potential of AI/MI in cancer research and clinical practice?
