• Abstract summary: We propose a deep embedded refined clustering method for breast cancer differentiation based on DNA methylation. The proposed approach is composed of two main stages. The first stage consists in the dimensionality reduction of the methylation data based on an autoencoder. The second stage is a clustering algorithm based on the soft-assignment of the latent space provided by the autoencoder.

• Abstract: Epigenetic alterations have an important role in the development of several types of cancer. Epigenetic studies generate a large amount of data, which makes it essential to develop novel models capable of dealing with large-scale data. In this work, we propose a deep embedded refined clustering method for breast cancer differentiation based on DNA methylation. In concrete, the deep learning system presented here uses the levels of CpG island methylation between 0 and 1. The proposed approach is composed of two main stages. The first stage consists in the dimensionality reduction of the methylation data based on an autoencoder. The second stage is a clustering algorithm based on the soft-assignment of the latent space provided by the autoencoder. The whole method is optimized through a weighted loss function composed of two terms: reconstruction and classification terms. To the best of the authors' knowledge, no previous studies have focused on the dimensionality reduction algorithms linked to classification trained end-to-end for DNA methylation analysis. The proposed method achieves an unsupervised clustering accuracy of 0.9927 and an error rate (%) of 0.73 on 137 breast tissue samples. After a second test of the deep-learning-based method using a different methylation database, an accuracy of 0.9343 and an error rate (%) of 6.57 on 45 breast tissue samples is obtained. Based on these results, the proposed algorithm outperforms other state-of-the-art methods evaluated under the same conditions for breast cancer classification based on DNA methylation data.

  Existing approaches utilize a two-stage pipeline: the detection stage for identifying the locations of potential mitotic cells and the classification stage for refining prediction confidences. This pipeline formulation can lead to inconsistencies in the classification stage due to the poor prediction quality of the detection stage and the mismatches in training data distributions. We propose a Refine Cascade Network (ReCasNet), an enhanced deep learning pipeline that mitigates the aforementioned problems with three improvements.
