• Abstract summary: We focus on few-shot disease subtype prediction problem, identifying subgroups of similar patients. We introduce meta learning techniques to develop a new model, which can extract the common experience or knowledge from interrelated clinical tasks. Our new model is built upon a carefully designed meta-learner, called Prototypical Network, that is a simple yet effective meta learning machine for few-shot image classification.

• Abstract: Current machine learning has made great progress on computer vision and many other fields attributed to the large amount of high-quality training samples, while it does not work very well on genomic data analysis, since they are notoriously known as small data. In our work, we focus on few-shot disease subtype prediction problem, identifying subgroups of similar patients that can guide treatment decisions for a specific individual through training on small data. In fact, doctors and clinicians always address this problem by studying several interrelated clinical variables simultaneously. We attempt to simulate such clinical perspective, and introduce meta learning techniques to develop a new model, which can extract the common experience or knowledge from interrelated clinical tasks and transfer it to help address new tasks. Our new model is built upon a carefully designed meta-learner, called Prototypical Network, that is a simple yet effective meta learning machine for few-shot image classification. Observing that gene expression data have specifically high dimensionality and high noise properties compared with image data, we proposed a new extension of it by appending two modules to address these issues. Concretely, we append a feature selection layer to automatically filter out the disease-irrelated genes and incorporate a sample reweighting strategy to adaptively remove noisy data, and meanwhile the extended model is capable of learning from a limited number of training examples and generalize well. Simulations and real gene expression data experiments substantiate the superiority of the proposed method for predicting the subtypes of disease and identifying potential disease-related genes.
