Yale’s Smita Krishnaswamy helps develop AI tool to classify cancer cells

The Indian-origin researcher said the tool, named AAnet, can detect patterns in gene expression at the single-cell level and simplify complex data into five distinct cell groups, or ‘archetypes’.

Indian-origin researcher Smita Krishnaswamy, associate professor of computer science and genetics at Yale, has co-led the development of a new artificial intelligence tool that identifies different types of cancer cells within a single tumor. The findings, published June 24 in Cancer Discovery, are expected to significantly advance cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Speaking to Yale Engineering, Krishnaswamy said the tool, named AAnet, can detect patterns in gene expression at the single-cell level and simplify complex data into five distinct cell groups, or ‘archetypes’.
