Autoencoders as Weight Initialization of Deep Classification Networks Applied to Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma

Abstract: Cancer is still one of the most devastating diseases of our time. One way of automatically classifying tumor samples is by analyzing its derived molecular information (i.e., its genes expression signatures). In this work, we aim to distinguish three different types of cancer: thyroid, skin, and stomach. For that, we compare the performance of a Denoising Autoencoder (DAE) used as weight initialization of a deep neural network. Although we address a different domain problem in this work, we have adopted the sam… Show more

“…The rest of the experiments remained the same: 2 strategies for importing the pre-trained AE into the top layers of the classifier, two approaches when training the classifier to detect different types of cancer, same evaluation of the obtained results. Although in a different domain, the best outcome was reached with a combination of the same strategy and the same approach in the previous work [19], with an F 1 score of 98.04, when identifying thyroid cancer.…”

“…We extend the previously described work in [21] by assembling three different types of experiments, divided into two main parts, where we use three different AEs and five types of cancer samples. In the first one, we analyze the performance of a deep neural network (DNN), using the same pipeline to identify different types of cancer.…”
