Deep Learning-Enhanced Radiomics Pipeline: Improving Prognostic Prediction Accuracy in Tumor Imaging via GPU-Accelerated 3D Representation Learning and Habitat Clustering
This project aims to enhance a traditional radiomics pipeline (PyRadiomics + classical machine learning) by integrating 3D deep segmentation/representation learning and multimodal fusion to improve cross-center generalizability and workflow automation. The core computational tasks heavily rely on GPU throughput and memory capacity to ensure reproducibility, stability, and timely delivery. Key innovations include automated 3D segmentation using advanced architectures like nnU-Net or Swin-UNETR, deep radiomics feature extraction via self-supervised learning, and GPU-accelerated habitat clustering in latent spaces. The resource plan allocates approximately 1,800 GPU hours and 40,000–50,000 CPU core hours to support a dual-track strategy that combines traditional radiomics with state-of-the-art deep learning.
