Motivation: Patient stratification is crucial for the effective treatment or management of heterogeneous diseases, including cancers. Multiomic technologies facilitate molecular characterization of human diseases; however, the complexity of data warrants the need for the development of robust data integration tools for patient stratification using machine-learning approaches.
Results: i CluF iteratively integrates three types of multiomic data (mRNA, miRNA, and DNA methylation) using pairwise patient similarity matrices built from each omic data. The intermediate omic-specific neighborhood matrices implement iterative matrix fusion and message passing among the similarity matrices to derive a final integrated matrix representing all the omics profiles of a patient, which is used to further cluster patients into subtypes. i CluF outperforms other methods with significant differences in the survival profiles of 8581 patients belonging to 30 different cancers in TCGA. i CluF also predicted the four intrinsic subtypes of Breast Invasive Carcinomas with adjusted rand index and Fowlkes-Mallows scores of 0.72 and 0.83, respectively. The Gini importance score showed that methylation features were the primary decisive players, followed by mRNA and miRNA to identify disease subtypes. i CluF can be applied to stratify patients with any disease containing multiomic datasets.
