OmicsTransformer effectively integrates multi-omics data for improved cancer diagnosis and prognosis by learning patient manifolds directly from high-dimensional data. This novel framework enhances prediction accuracy and identifies key biomarkers.

Area of Science:

  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Current multi-omics integration models face challenges with high dimensionality, data redundancy, missing assays, and incomplete pathway information.
  • Existing methods often rely on heuristic graph construction or fixed knowledge bases, limiting their flexibility and biological interpretability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel framework, OmicsTransformer, for direct learning of biologically meaningful patient manifolds from high-dimensional multi-omics data.
  • To overcome limitations of existing models by avoiding heuristic graph construction and fixed knowledge-base constraints.

Main Methods:

  • OmicsTransformer projects omics modalities into latent patches and uses a Transformer encoder to model dependencies.
  • It enforces masked semantic consistency via an Exponential Cosine Consistency Loss and fuses modalities using sample-specific uncertainty.

  • The framework is implemented in PyTorch and its source code is publicly available.

    • Main Results:

    • OmicsTransformer demonstrated strong performance across eight diagnostic and prognostic cohorts.
    • Achieved 89.4% accuracy for TCGA-BRCA subtyping and 90.6% AUC for TCGA-LGG grading.
    • Significantly improved recurrence prediction accuracy over DeepKEGG, outperforming it by up to 21.5 percentage points.

    Conclusions:

    • OmicsTransformer offers a powerful, flexible approach to multi-omics integration for cancer research.
    • The framework successfully learns patient-specific biological features directly from complex omics data.
    • Identified reproducible cross-modal biomarker cores and novel progression drivers through variance-weighted attribution.
