Treffer: Researchers at University of Regensburg Report New Data on Cancer (mhn: a Python package for analyzing cancer progression with Mutual Hazard Networks).

The article focuses on the development of a Python package called mhn, which utilizes Mutual Hazard Networks (MHNs) to analyze cancer progression. Researchers from the University of Regensburg, Germany, highlight that MHNs help bridge the observational gap in cancer diagnosis by reconstructing the dynamics of disease progression. The mhn package enhances numerical efficiency, allowing for the training of models with over 100 mutational events, and offers features such as tumor evolutionary history reconstruction, artificial tumor history sampling, and genomic interaction visualization. The package is available for installation via PyPI and is licensed under the MIT License on GitHub, with comprehensive user guides provided online. [Extracted from the article]
