Seeing the primary tumor because of all the trees: Cancer type prediction on low-dimensional data.

The Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) syndrome is characterized by identifiable metastases while the primary tumor remains hidden. In recent years, various data-driven approaches have been suggested to predict the location of the primary tumor (LOP) in CUP patients promising improved diagnosis and outcome. These LOP prediction approaches use high-dimensional input data like images or genetic data.
