Abstract:

Cancer classification and biomarker identification are crucial for guiding personalized treatment. To make effective use of miRNA associations and expression data, we have developed a deep learning model for cancer classification and biomarker identification. We propose an approach for cancer classification called MiRNA Selection and Hybrid Fusion (MiRS-HF), which consists of early fusion and intermediate fusion. The early fusion involves applying a Layer Attention Graph Convolutional Network (LAGCN) to a miRNA-disease heterogeneous network, resulting in a miRNA-disease association degree score matrix. The intermediate fusion employs a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) in the classification tasks, weighting the expression data based on the miRNA-disease association degree score. Furthermore, MiRS-HF can identify the important miRNA biomarkers and their expression patterns. The proposed method demonstrates superior performance in the classification tasks of six cancers compared to other methods. Simultaneously, we incorporated the feature weighting strategy into the comparison algorithm, leading to a significant improvement in the algorithm's results, highlighting the extreme importance of this strategy.
