arXiv:2607. 19426v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large single-cell datasets are expensive to store, curate, and repeatedly reuse for model training.
By Yaodi Luo, Peize He, Lingbei Meng, Bowen Han, Zheng Lu, Jianqing Zhu, Lian Zhang
Transformer models for high-dimensional omics analysis process thousands of genes or pathways, although only a subset requires deep computation. Mixture-of-Recursions (MoR) improves efficiency through adaptive token-choice or expert-choice routing.
arXiv:2607. 14070v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Genomic foundation models such as Evo 2 learn rich sequence representations, but their value for biosecurity screening is largely unexplored.
