Multimodal autoencoders for subtypes and survival prediction of breast cancer

Implementation of our paper titled "Prognostically Relevant Subtypes and Survival Prediction for Breast Cancer Based on Multimodal Genomics Data" submitted to IEEE Access journal, August 2019. In this implementation, a multimodal autoencoders(MAE) is used to predict different clinical status of breast cancer patients based on multiplatformic genomics data. The MAE is trained with genomics data such as DNA methylation, gene expression, miRNA expressionfrom, and clinical outcomes from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA).

Predicted clinical status

  1. Breast cancer subtypes which is determined by the estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PGR), and HER2/neu status
  2. Survival rate (0-1, with 1 being the best chance of survival).

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • TensorFlow
  • Keras.

Download and create the dataset

  • Clone the repo using git clone https://github.com/rezacsedu/MultimodalAE-BreastCancer.git
  • Run the dataset creation program python3 main_download.py -d DATASET_IDX.
DATASET_IDX Data Types Data size(GB)
1 DNA Methylation 148
2 Gene Expression 9
3 miRNA Expression 0.24
4 Gene Expression + miRNA Expression 10
5 DNA Methylation + Gene Expression + miRNA Expression 162

Train the neural networks

  • Run the neural networks program python3 main_run.py <options>, with the below supported options:

Example

If we want to perform breast cancer subtype classification based on the dime sion reduced DNA methylation dataset using PCA on TensorFlow platform, one can issue the following command from the terminal: python3 main_run.py --platform 1 --type 1 --dataset 1 --batch 10 --pretrain_epoch 5 --train_epoch 5 --pca 1 --optimizer 3

In the preceding command, we define: -- 10 as the batch size -- 5 as the number of pretraining epoch -- 5 is the fine tuning epoch -- 3 is the idx for the Adam optimizer.
