Semi-Supervised Learning-Based Genetic Biomarkers Dataset for Multiple-Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma Prediction

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The article introduces a new dataset for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prediction, comprising 770 patient samples with 11,150 gene expression levels each, categorized into five classes from normal tissue to various HCC stages. The dataset was constructed using XGBoost and semi‑supervised learning on three existing genomic biomarker datasets, leveraging their labels to generate new annotations. The resulting XGBoost model achieved a 96.5% classification accuracy during the semi‑supervised training process.

Potential of Artificial Intelligence Algorithms for Identification of Relevant Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers of Early-Stage Liver Cancer

This study investigates deep learning and explainable AI methods to diagnose hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and identify diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers across five disease stages using a transcriptomic dataset built via semi‑supervised learning. The best model used 15 genes selected by SelectKBest, achieving 90.74% accuracy, while a 20‑gene model had the lowest loss of 0.3187. SHAP‑based XAI highlighted DNAJB14 as the most influential gene, and functional validation showed that inhibiting DNAJB14 reverses key malignant traits of HCC cells.

AMPLIFAI: A Multiphase CT Dataset for Benchmarking Clinical Reasoning in LI-RADS Assessment of Liver Lesions

The paper introduces AMPLIFAI, the first public dataset of multiphase abdominal CT scans annotated with LI-RADS categories and segmented for three key LI-RADS features: arterial phase hyperenhancement, washout, and enhancing capsule. It outlines the dataset’s composition, curation process, and annotation pipeline following the Datasheets for Datasets format to promote transparency and reproducibility. The dataset aims to support the development of AI models for automated hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis using the biopsy‑free, imaging‑based LI‑RADs framework.

Semantic Segmentation-Driven Image-Level Diagnosis of Liver Cancers in Hematoxylin and Eosin Histopathology Images

arXiv:2607. 03253v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) staining constitutes the primary entry point in routine diagnostic workflows, computer-aided diagnosis from whole-slide H&E images is of particular clinical relevance.
