A differential diagnosis between uterine leiomyoma and leiomyosarcoma using transcriptome analysis.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to estimate the accuracy of transcriptome-based classifier in differential diagnosis of uterine leiomyoma and leiomyosarcoma. We manually selected 114 normal uterine tissue and 31 leiomyosarcoma samples from publicly available transcriptome data in UCSC Xena as training/validation sets. We developed pre-processing procedure and gene selection method to sensitively find genes of larger variance in leiomyosarcoma than normal uterine tissues. Through our method, 17 genes were selected to build transcriptome-based classifier. The prediction accuracies of deep feedforward neural network (DNN), support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting (GB) models were examined. We interpret the biological functionality of selected genes via network-b
