Researchers from the University of British Columbia and BC Cancer have developed an AI model that makes predictions on cancer patient survival outcomes.
At the University of British Columbia and BC Cancer, a research group has come up with an artificial intelligence (AI) model that has the potential to anticipate cancer patient survival more precisely and with more readily available data compared to the tools that were used earlier.
