Abstract

This paper studies the classification of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with machine learning and radiomics methods. The highlight of the paper is that combining features extracted from computed tomography (CT) images by radiomics and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are used in classification task. It’s different from the previous radiomics-only methodology including tumor intensity, tumor shape, tumor texture and wavelet features. In the paper, deep neural networks (DNN) U-Net and Res-Net realize high-level features extraction. The classifiers based on random forest (RF) and gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) are trained with combining features extracted from computed tomography images. The experiments show that the combining features are effective biomarkers to discriminate benign and malignant GIST. The performance (accuracy 81%, precision 78%, recall 83%) of the classifier is validated on 50 instances.
