Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The diagnosis of cancers is a complex and critical task in healthcare, and the integration of knowledge graphs and large language models has shown great potential in improving accuracy and efficiency. This special issue aims to explore the diverse applications of knowledge graphs and large language models in cancer diagnosis, highlighting their impact, methodologies, and potential for advancing medical research and patient care.

The proposed special issue will feature research articles and review papers that delve into the application of knowledge graphs and large language models in cancer diagnosis. We invite researchers, clinicians, and data scientists to contribute their original work, focusing on the innovative use of these models in areas such as clinical decision support systems, image analysis, genomic data interpretation, biomedical literature mining, and patient risk assessment. The special issue will provide a platform to showcase the latest advancements, discuss challenges and opportunities, and share best practices in leveraging knowledge graphs and large language models to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of cancer diagnosis.

This special issue is expected to attract a wide range of readers, including researchers, oncologists, pathologists, and healthcare professionals, who are interested in the intersection of knowledge graphs, large language models, and cancer diagnosis. By bringing together cutting-edge research and practical applications, this special issue will contribute to disseminating knowledge and fostering collaborations between the medical and computational communities.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Deep learning
  • Knowledge graphs
  • Machine learning
  • Large language models
  • Cancer diagnosis
  • Clinical decision support systems
