Are Tabular Foundation Models Robust to Realistic Query Distribution Shifts in Microbiome Data?

arXiv:2606. 24995v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tabular foundation models (TFMs) achieve strong performance on microbiome abundance data, yet their robustness under realistic distribution shift remains poorly characterized.

Structured Gaussian Processes for Uncertainty-Aware Classification of High-Dimensional, Small-Sampled Omics Data

arXiv:2607. 02103v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Classifying heterogeneous omics data remains a fundamental challenge in computational biology, particularly in high-dimensional, small-sample settings where nonlinear interactions dominate and class imbalance further complicates reliable prediction of minority phenotypes.

PlantBGC: Transformer for Plant BGC Discovery via Label-Free Domain Adaptation and Weak Supervision

Plant biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encode specialized-metabolite pathways, yet curated plant BGC labels remain scarce, hindering supervised discovery at genome scale. Existing plant BGC mining tools are largely signature- and rule-driven and do not fully leverage recent advances in contextual representation learning for modeling long-range domain context and controlling false positives under strong domain shift.

When Tabular Foundation Models Transfer Across Modalities: A Systematic Evaluation Across 95 Datasets, 7 Modalities, and Two Regimes

arXiv:2606. 02106v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a single classification pipeline that combines an Equiangular Tight Frame (ETF) preprocessing stage with a tabular foundation model for in-context inference, applied identically across modalities once data is mapped to fixed vector representations.
