Table 2.

TARGET-NBL stage-4 patients dataset, quantitative characteristics of the numerical features. First event: 0 event, 1 progression, 2 relapse, 3 death. std. dev.: standard deviation. MKI: Mitotic Karyorrhectic Index. Percent Necrosis: percentage of dead tumor cells within the cancerous tissue, which can be an important factor in the pathology and prognosis of the disease. Percent Tumor: percentage of tumor cells present in a biopsy or surgical specimen compared to normal cells. Percent Tumor vs Stroma: percentage of tumor cells to stromal cells within a tumor sample. The stroma is the supportive tissue surrounding the tumor cells, which includes connective tissue, blood vessels, and immune cells. Ploidy Value: number of sets of chromosomes in the tumor cells. Neuroblastoma can be classified as either diploid (normal chromosome number) or aneuploid (abnormal chromosome number). Aneuploid tumors often indicate a more aggressive disease and are associated with poorer outcomes. In contrast, diploid tumors may have a better prognosis. Supenhancer group: 0 ATRX, 1 MES, and 2 MYCN, as defined in [12]. More information on this dataset can be found in [1214]
