The aim of our research is to establish the viability of machine learning to the prediction of TGF-β cancer treatment success (or failure). Our method begins by analyzing a dynamical system model of cancer invasion with a subsequent immune system response. Important model parameters are identified. Numerical simulations are then run with suitably randomly chosen parameters to create a simulated dataset that is used to train different predictive machine learning models. When presented with new data, the classifier’s accuracy is recorded. We can celebrate one model’s accuracy at 98.65% and look forward to applying the model on real-world data.
