    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the potential value of the machine learning (ML)-based MRI texture analysis for predicting 1p/19q codeletion status of lower-grade gliomas (LGG), using various state-of-the-art ML algorithms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: For this retrospective study, 107 patients with LGG were included from a public database. Texture features were extracted from conventional T2-weighted and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI images, using LIFEx software. Training and unseen validation splits were created using stratified 10-fold cross-validation technique along with minority over-sampling. Dimension reduction was done using collinearity analysis and feature selection (ReliefF). Classifications were done using adaptive boosting, k-nearest neighbours, naive Bayes, neural network, random forest, stochastic gradient descent, and support vector machine. Friedman test and pairwise post hoc analyses were used for comparison of classification performances based on the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS: Overall, the predictive performance of the ML algorithms were statistically significantly different, χ2(6) = 26.7, p < 0.001. There was no statistically significant difference among the performance of the neural network, naive Bayes, support vector machine, random forest, and stochastic gradient descent, adjusted p > 0.05. The mean AUC and accuracy values of these five algorithms ranged from 0.769 to 0.869 and from 80.1 to 84%, respectively. The neural network had the highest mean rank with mean AUC and accuracy values of 0.869 and 83.8%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The ML-based MRI texture analysis might be a promising non-invasive technique for predicting the 1p/19q codeletion status of LGGs. Using this technique along with various ML algorithms, more than four-fifths of the LGGs can be correctly classified. KEY POINTS: • More than four-fifths of the lower-grade gliomas can be correctly classified with machine learning-based MRI texture analysis. Satisfying classification outcomes are not limited to a single algorithm. • A few-slice-based volumetric segmentation technique would be a valid approach, providing satisfactory predictive textural information and avoiding excessive segmentation duration in clinical practice. • Feature selection is sensitive to different patient data set samples so that each sampling leads to the selection of different feature subsets, which needs to be considered in future works.
