It is challenging to identify the tumor-immune system interactions that modulate immune states and immunotherapy responses due to the prohibitively complex space of possible interactions. Our statistical analysis framework, ImogiMap quantifies tumor-immune interactions based on their synergistic co-associations with immune-associated phenotypes. ImogiMap-based analyses recapitulated known interactions modulating immunotherapy responses and nominated the CD86/CD70 axis as an immunotherapy target that overlaps with IFNG overexpression and patient survival in endometrial carcinoma.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
