Clustering de Subespacios Multivista Profundo Auto-Reforzado para Subtipificación de Cáncer

Identifying cancer subtypes is crucial for understanding disease progression and guiding precision medicine. With advances in high-throughput experimental technologies, the integration of multiple types of omics data for cancer subtype identification has become increasingly feasible. However, despite the promising performance of existing integrative cancer subtyping methods, efficiently integrating and clustering multi-omics datasets remains challenging due to the high levels of noise inherent in omics data, which impede the accurate characterization of relationships among samples. To address these challenges, we propose a novel deep multi-view subspace clustering model that incorporates a self-reinforced learning strategy. This strategy iteratively improves the quality of self-representation, which is critical for accurately capturing sample relationships and enabling effective clustering. Specifically, during model training, the proposed method learns a highly reliable self-representation through a good-neighbor learning mechanism, allowing it to model more accurate and robust inter-sample relationships. Building upon this reliable self-representation, we further develop a learnable view-graph fusion framework that integrates complementary information across multiple omics views to derive a consensus representation for clustering, thereby guiding the overall learning process. In addition, we introduce a local graph-guided learning mechanism based on an initial graph constructed from the raw data. This mechanism serves as an effective regularization strategy to prevent the model from converging to suboptimal solutions, thereby enhancing stability and robustness during training. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms several state-of-the-art approaches, validating its effectiveness and robustness for cancer subtype identification.
