Abstract
Cancers are complex dynamical systems. They remain the leading cause of disease-related pediatric mortality in North America. To overcome this burden, we must decipher the state-space attractor dynamics of gene expression patterns and protein oscillations orchestrated by cancer stemness networks. The review provides an overview of dynamical systems theory to steer cancer research in pattern science. While most of our current tools in network medicine rely on statistical correlation methods, causality inference remains primitively developed. As such, a survey of attractor reconstruction methods and machine algorithms for the detection of causal structures applicable in experimentally derived time series cancer datasets is presented. A toolbox of complex systems approaches are discussed for reconstructing the signaling state space of cancer networks, interpreting causal relationships in their time series gene expression patterns, and assisting clinical decision making in computational oncology. As a proof of concept, the applicability of some algorithms are demonstrated on pediatric brain cancer datasets and the requirement of their time series analysis is highlighted.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
