Is It You or Your Environment? A Bayesian Inference Framework for Genomically-Anchored Personalized Physiological Interpretation

arXiv:2606. 13556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalized health AI systems face a fundamental cold-start problem: machine learning models for physiological interpretation require weeks of individual behavioral data before they can distinguish constitutional variation from environmentally driven deviation.

Transcriptomic Models for Immunotherapy Response Prediction Show Limited Cross-cohort Generalisability

The study evaluated nine transcriptomic models—five bulk RNA‑seq and four single‑cell RNA‑seq—designed to predict response to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Across independent datasets, bulk models performed near chance while single‑cell models offered only modest gains, and pathway analyses revealed inconsistent biomarker signals. The results highlight the limited cross‑cohort robustness and biological consistency of current transcriptomic ICI predictors.

PopPert: Population-level Joint-Distribution Modeling for Single-Cell Perturbation Prediction

PopPert is a framework that models population-level joint gene expression distributions to predict transcriptional responses to perturbations in single-cell RNA sequencing data. By using a low‑rank Gaussian Copula, it captures gene co‑expression patterns and eliminates the need for cell‑to‑cell correspondence, thereby reducing sensitivity to single‑cell noise. Across multiple benchmarks, PopPert outperforms existing methods in differential expression recovery, perturbation effect estimation, and distribution matching, demonstrating the effectiveness of population‑level joint distribution learning for unpaired single‑cell data.

BioM-JEPA: joint-embedding prediction of graph-connected gene blocks in single cells

Single-cell transcriptomes are sparse observations of coordinated biological programmes, yet most self-supervised models learn by reconstructing individual genes. Here we present BioM-JEPA, a joint-embedding predictive architecture that instead predicts aggregate representations of graph-connected gene blocks defined by protein-association and corpus-derived coexpression evidence.

HierarchicalDAEW: Domain-Aware Edge-Weighted Graph Convolution with Evidential Uncertainty for Multi-Section Spatial Gene Expression Prediction from H&E Histology

arXiv:2607. 20896v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spatial transcriptomics assays remain costly and technically demanding, restricting transcriptome-wide profiling to specialist settings and preventing routine clinical deployment.
