Raman spectroscopy, as a label-free detection technology, has been widely used in tumor diagnosis. However, most tumor diagnosis procedures utilize multivariate statistical analysis methods for classification, which poses a major bottleneck toward achieving high accuracy. Here, we propose a concept called the two-dimensional (2D) Raman figure combined with convolutional neural network (CNN) to improve the accuracy. Two-dimensional Raman figures can be obtained from four transformation methods: spectral recurrence plot (SRP), spectral Gramian angular field (SGAF), spectral short-time Fourier transform (SSTFT), and spectral Markov transition field (SMTF). Two-dimensional CNN models all yield more than 95% accuracy, which is higher than the PCA-LDA method and the Raman-spectrum-CNN method, indicating that 2D Raman figure inputs combined with CNN may be one reason for gaining excellent performances. Among 2D-CNN models, the main difference is the conversion, where SRP is based on the structure of wavenumber series with the best performances (98.9% accuracy, 99.5% sensitivity, 98.3% specificity), followed by SGAF on the wavenumber series, SSTFT on wavenumber and intensity information, and SMTF on wavenumber position information. The inclusion of external information in the conversion may be another reason for improvement in the accuracy. The excellent capability shows huge potential for tumor diagnosis via 2D Raman figures and may be applied in other spectroscopy analytical fields.
