Abstract
Tumor Mutation Burden (TMB) is a critical biomarker for predicting the response to cancer im- munotherapy. Typically, TMB is usually evaluated using Whole-Exome Sequencing (WES) in clinical practice. However, this approach requires use of finite tissue specimens and time-consuming laboratory processes. To address these issues, we have developed a deep learning model called DBFormer, which can predict TMB using readily available histopathological images of lung adenocarcinoma. DBFormer is a four-tier classification pyramid structure that incorporates color convolution and Bi- Routing At- tention and consists of two primary components. The first part is the color deconvolution layer. Each patch passes through the color deconvolution layer to produces an image that combines RGB and HED image information. The second component has four stages, each with a maximum pooling layer and a DBFormer block. The maximum pooling layer reduces the image size while increasing the feature matrix’s dimension. The DBFormer block extracts and classifies the characteristics of the image. We selected 337 and 200 whole slide images (WSIs) of lung cancer from the TCGALUAD dataset as bi- nary and triple classification datasets, respectively. The experiments conducted on the aforementioned dataset demonstrate the efficacy of our model in comparison to classical deep learning models, and es- tablish its superiority over state-of-the-art methods. DBFormer achieves an area under curve (AUC)of 0.997 in the binary classification dataset and an average accuracy of 0.973 in the ternary classification dataset.
