Title
Topological biomarker in lung adenocarcinoma
Summary
In this project, we will try to build a new topological biomarker from H&E stained images of lung cancer. We will build a new algorithm to identify the tumor microenvironment topology and use a non-supervised clustering method to cluster those topologies. By collecting all survival data from different sources, we will build a machine learning model to predicting the patient's survival from tumor microenvironment topology.
Aims

1. The poor prognosis of lung cancer requires the construction of new markers.
2. Unraveling the topology of lung adenocarcinoma tumor microenvironments requires new deep learning algorithms.
3. Constructing an effective prognostic model of lung adenocarcinoma for personalized diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer
