• Abstract: An important objective in computational biology is the efficient integration of multi-omics data. The task of integration comes with challenges: multi-omics data are most often unpaired (requiring diagonal integration), partially labeled with information about biological conditions, and in some situations such as rare diseases, only very small datasets are available. We present MODIS, a semi supervised framework designed to account for these particular challenges. To address the challenge of very small datasets, we propose to exploit information contained in larger multi-omics databases by training our model on a large reference database and a small target dataset simultaneously, effectively turning the problem of transfer learning into a problem of learning with class imbalance. MODIS performs diagonal integration on unpaired samples, leveraging class-labels to align modalities despite class imbalance and data scarcity. The architecture combines multiple variational auto-encoders, a class classifier and an adversarially trained modality classifier. To ensure training stability, we adapted a regularized relativistic GAN loss to this setting. We first validate MODIS on a synthetic dataset to assess the level of supervision needed for accurate alignment and to quantify the impact of class imbalance on predictive performance. We then apply our approach to the large public TCGA database, considering between 10 and 34 classes (cancer types and normal tissue). MODIS demonstrates high prediction accuracy, robust performance with limited supervision, and stability to class imbalance. These results position MODIS as a promising solution for challenging integration scenarios, particularly diagonal integration with a small number of samples, typical of rare diseases studies.
