Radiomic Feature Selection Using Gradient Loss of Deep Neural Network for Lung Cancer Stage Detection

arXiv:2606.04453v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Radiomics enables extraction of quantitative imaging biomarkers from medical images and has become an important tool for computer-aided cancer diagnosis. However, radiomics datasets are typically high-dimensional with limited samples, making feature selection a critical step for building reliable predictive models. This study proposes a Gradient-Loss Recursive Feature Elimination (GL-RFE) framework that integrates gradient sensitivity analysis from a deep neural network to identify the most influential radiomic features for lung cancer stage de
