arXiv:2606. 24940v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting transcriptional responses to genetic perturbations could reduce the experimental burden of functional genomics, but extrapolation to genes that were never perturbed during training remains difficult.
arXiv:2608. 05928v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Single-cell transcriptomes are sparse observations of coordinated biological programmes, yet most self-supervised models learn by reconstructing individual genes.
arXiv:2602. 04901v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Predicting transcriptional responses to genetic perturbations is a central problem in functional genomics.
arXiv:2606. 14734v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Motivation: Gene regulatory network inference from single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data is important for uncovering cell-state-specific transcriptional programs.
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.
arXiv:2608. 06824v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A central task in virtual cell modeling is predicting single-cell transcriptional responses to unseen genetic perturbations and drug combinations, and biological networks provide valuable priors on gene relationships.
arXiv:2607. 13120v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inferring gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from single-cell transcriptomic data is crucial for biological discovery, yet existing approaches suffer from a fundamental misalignment with real-world needs.
arXiv:2606. 13713v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting cellular transcriptional responses to genetic perturbations is a central problem in single-cell biology, especially in the zero-shot setting where the perturbed gene or gene combination is unseen during training.
arXiv:2608. 00985v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid growth of single-cell transcriptomic data has enabled the development of foundation models pretrained primarily by reconstructing masked expression values.
arXiv:2606. 00685v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) capture transcription factor-target interactions and are central to understanding cell-state regulation and disease.
arXiv:2608. 01734v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Predicting transcriptomic responses to small-molecule perturbations across cell lines is central to drug discovery, but exhaustive profiling of drug-cell combinations is infeasible.
arXiv:2606. 27752v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Single-cell perturbation models can reduce costly wet-lab screening by predicting how cells respond transcriptionally to interventions.
arXiv:2606. 01042v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perturbation experiments are central to understanding cellular mechanisms, but remain costly and sparse, motivating prediction of gene expression responses for unobserved conditions.
