The cellular composition of tumors is now recognized as an essential phenotype, with implications to diagnostic, progression and therapy efficacy. A tool for accurate profiling of the tumor microenvironment is lacking, as single-cell methods and computational approaches are not applicable or suffer from low accuracy. Here we present EpiSort, a novel strategy based on targeted bisulfite sequencing, which allows the accurate enumeration of 23 cell types and may be applicable to cancer studies.

"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.
