Chemotherapy is a mainstream cancer treatment, but has a constant challenge of drug resistance, which consequently leads to poor prognosis in cancer treatment. For better understanding and effective treatment of drug-resistant cancer cells, omics approaches have been widely conducted in various forms. A notable use of omics data beyond routine data mining is to use them for computational modeling that allows generating useful predictions, such as drug responses and prognostic biomarkers. In particular, an increasing volume of omics data has facilitated the development of machine learning models. In this mini review, we highlight recent studies on the use of multi-omics data for studying drug-resistant cancer cells. We put a particular focus on studies that use computational models to characterize drug-resistant cancer cells, and to predict biomarkers and/or drug responses. Computational models covered in this mini review include network-based models, machine learning models and genome-scale metabolic models. We also provide perspectives on future research opportunities for combating drug-resistant cancer cells.

Extraction of teeth is an important treatment decision in orthodontic practice. An expert system that is able to arrive at suitable treatment decisions can be valuable to clinicians for verifying treatment plans, minimizing human error, training orthodontists, and improving reliability. In this work, we train a number of machine learning models for this prediction task using data for 287 patients, evaluated independently by five different orthodontists. We demonstrate why ensemble methods are particularly suited for this task. We evaluate the performance of the machine learning models and interpret the training behavior. We show that the results for our model are close to the level of agreement between different orthodontists.
