Hierarchical Perfusion Graphs for Tumor Heterogeneity Modeling in Glioma Molecular Subtyping

Precise molecular subtyping of gliomas, including isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation and 1p/19q codeletion, directly guides surgical and therapeutic decisions, yet currently relies on invasive tissue sampling. Deep learning on structural MRI has emerged as a non-invasive alternative, but anatomy-only approaches cannot capture the hemodynamic signatures that distinguish molecular subtypes. Radiogenomics based on dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MRI holds immense potential for non-invasively characterizing glioma molecular subtypes, yet clinical deployment has been hindered by inter-site variability and the limitations of voxel-wise analysis. We introduce HiPerfGNN, a framework that first learns discrete hemodynamic representations from raw time-intensity curves using a vector-quantized variational autoencoder (VQ-VAE). These quantized perfusion codes define coarse-level graph nodes representing functional tumor habitats, each of which is hierarchically subdivided into fine-level subregions guided by structural MRI. A hierarchical graph neural network then propagates information across scales for molecular prediction. On an internal cohort (n=475), the model achieved AUCs of 0.96 (IDH), 0.89 (1p/19q), and 0.84 (WHO grade), and maintained robust IDH performance (AUC 0.89) on an independent external cohort (n=397) without recalibration. Gradient-based saliency analysis confirms biologically grounded attention patterns aligned with known glioma pathophysiology. Our results demonstrate the added value of integrating perfusion dynamics into radiogenomic pipelines for glioma molecular subtyping. Code is available at https://github.com/janghana/HiPerfGNN.

Information-Preserving Domain Transfer with Unlabeled Data in Misspecified Simulation-Based Inference

Simulation-based inference (SBI) provides amortized Bayesian parameter inference from simulator-generated data without requiring explicit likelihood evaluation. Its reliability can degrade under model misspecification, where real-world observations are not well represented by the simulator used for training. Existing methods using unlabeled real-world data often align simulated and real-world data distributions, but marginal alignment alone does not directly preserve parameter-relevant information needed for posterior inference. We propose SPIN, an SBI framework with parameter-relevant information-preserving domain transfer using unlabeled, unpaired real-world observations. During training, SPIN translates labeled simulator observations toward the real-world domain and back to the simulator domain, using the original simulator labels to encourage domain transfer that preserves parameter-relevant mutual information. At test time, the learned real-to-simulator transport maps real-world observations into the simulator domain for posterior inference, without requiring real-world parameter labels or paired real--simulator observations. Across controlled synthetic and physical real-world benchmarks, SPIN improves real-world posterior inference, with the improvement becoming clearer as misspecification increases.
