| Popis: | The study explores the integration of mathematical modelling and machine learning to understand tumour-macrophage interactions in the tumour microenvironment. It details mathematical models based on biochemistry and physics for predicting tumour dynamics, highlighting the role of macrophages. Machine learning, particularly unsupervised and supervised techniques like K-means clustering, logistic regression, and support vector machines, are implemented to analyse simulation data. The thesis's integration of K-means clustering reveals distinct tumour behaviour patterns through the classification of tumour cells based on their microenvironmental interactions. This segmentation is crucial for understanding tumour heterogeneity and its implications for treatment. Additionally, the application of logistic regression provides insights into the probability of macrophage polarization states in the tumour microenvironment. This statistical model underscores the significant factors influencing macrophage behaviour and their consequent impact on tumour progression. These analytical approaches enhance the understanding of the complex dynamics within the tumour microenvironment, contributing to more effective tumour study strategies. The study presents a comprehensive analysis of tumour growth, macrophage polarization, and their impact on cancer treatment and prognosis. Ethical considerations and future directions focus on enhancing model accuracy and integrating experimental data for improved cancer diagnosis and treatment strategies. The thesis concludes with the potential of this hybrid approach in advancing cancer biology and therapeutic approaches. Det finns övrigt digitalt material (t.ex. film-, bild- eller ljudfiler) eller modeller/artefakter tillhörande examensarbetet som ska skickas till arkivet.There are other digital material (eg film, image or audio files) or models/artifacts that belongs to the thesis and need to be archived. |
