PathME unsupervised #multiomics
1) genes space → pathways space
2) for each pathway: collapse pathways from multiple omics to one per patient
3) sparse NMF biclustering

✓compared against SNF and iCluster
✓TCGA x 4
✓hyperparameters
✓source code
✓5-fold CV

#SundayMultiOmics
Worth noting:
- authors use sNMF consensus from 500 runs (cophenetic correlation + permutation testing to choose # of clusters)
- the autoencoders are denoising
- worth praise is the effort into interpretability (of both features/omics & clinical associations) - see supplement!

["Layman" introduction]: many studies focus on the differences in the abundance of specific biomolecules; while very useful to highlight the obvious #biomarkers, it may not explain complex disease mechanisms & can be very sensitive to cohort differences (e.g. in #metabolomics)

[[Introduction]]: Similarity network fusion (SNF, doi.org/10.1038/nmeth.…) is a popular technique (600+ citations, a lot for multi-omics!) for getting a sort of consensus signal from multiple omics; it requires the same patients (less commonly - observations) in each omic.
