SpaFactor is a lightweight framework that predicts spatial gene expression from hematoxylin and eosin images by fusing central spot visuals with multiscale neighborhood context. It uses a residual MLP to map tissue microenvironment to low‑dimensional latent gene programs, which are decoded into coordinated multi‑gene predictions. Across five public cohorts, SpaFactor outperforms existing methods, especially for spatially variable genes, and better recovers biologically organized spatial patterns.

GATE-ST is a gene-aware text-image encoder that enhances spatial transcriptomics predictions by integrating gene descriptions into image-based models. The method encodes gene summaries with a text encoder and fuses these embeddings with image features via cross‑attention, aligning them with morphological cues. Benchmarks show GATE‑ST outperforms random gene embeddings and other image‑text fusion architectures, indicating its potential to improve accuracy while reducing time and cost in spatial gene expression analysis.
