Objectives  The performance of multiparametric MRI-based radiomics models for predicting H3 K27M mutant status in diffuse midline glioma (DMG) has not been thoroughly evaluated. The optimal combination of multiparametric MRI and machine learning techniques remains undetermined. We compared the performance of various radiomics models across different MRI sequences and different machine learning techniques.    Methods  A total of 102 patients with pathologically confirmed DMG were retrospectively enrolled (27 with H3 K27M-mutant and 75 with H3 K27M wild-type). Radiomics features were extracted from eight sequences, and 18 feature sets were conducted by independent combination. There were three feature matrix normalization algorithms, two dimensionality-reduction methods, four feature selectors, and seven classifiers, consisting of 168 machine learning pipelines. Radiomics models were established across different feature sets and machine learning pipelines. The performance of models was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves with area under the curve (AUC) and compared with DeLong’s test.    Results  The multiparametric MRI-based radiomics models could accurately predict the H3 K27M mutant status in DMG (highest AUC: 0.807–0.969, for different sequences or sequence combinations). However, the results varied significantly between different machine learning techniques. When suitable machine learning techniques were used, the conventional MRI-based radiomics models shared similar performance to advanced MRI-based models (highest AUC: 0.875–0.915 vs. 0.807–0.926; DeLong’s test,  p  &amp;gt; 0.05). Most models had a better performance when generated with a combination of MRI sequences. The optimal model in the present study used a combination of all sequences (AUC = 0.969).    Conclusions  The multiparametric MRI-based radiomics models could be useful for predicting H3 K27M mutant status in DMG, but the performance varied across different sequences and machine learning techniques.
