AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient for effectively analyzing and monitoring complex repetitive sequences in the human genome, especially in cancer-related genomic changes, leading to inadequate research on these key regions.
A method called ARTEMIS is provided that identifies and evaluates various repetitive sequence types across the entire genome, including satellite DNA, RNA elements, LINE, SINE, LTR, etc., by analyzing k-mers in nucleic acid sequences. It then uses machine learning and epigenetic analysis to generate scores for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
It enables precise diagnosis and monitoring of cancer-related genomic changes, provides new methods for cancer diagnosis and treatment, improves the ability to identify repetitive sequence changes, and supports personalized treatment decisions.
