Abstract

METHODS: Patients (363 in total) with stomach adenocarcinoma from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort were included. An autoencoder was constructed to integrate the RNA sequencing, miRNA sequencing, and methylation data. The features of the bottleneck layer were used to perform the -means clustering algorithm to obtain different subgroups for evaluating the prognosis-related risk of stomach adenocarcinoma. The model's robustness was verified using a 10-fold cross-validation (CV). Survival was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression was used to estimate hazard risk. The model was validated in three independent cohorts with different endpoints.
