The study benchmarks active spot selection methods against random sampling for spatial transcriptomics, focusing on cost‑efficient data acquisition. Using two public cohorts, the authors simulate multi‑round selection with uncertainty‑based (MC‑dropout, TOD) and diversity‑based (CoreSet, TypiClust) strategies, evaluating performance at 5%, 10%, 30%, and 50% of the spot pool. Results show that none of the active strategies consistently outperforms random sampling across all budgets or evaluation metrics, with performance varying by dataset and metric.

Integrating complex, multi-omics data presents significant challenges. Existing approaches often face a trade-off between model interpretability and representational capacity, with most either relying on post-hoc interpretation or use linear models that may overlook complex interactions.
The study evaluates the use of default decision thresholds (t=0.50) in multi‑label enzyme commission (EC) number prediction across 14,096 compounds and six EC classes. It finds a high mean accuracy of 77.16% but low macro F1 (0.3976) and macro recall (0.3872), indicating severe class‑imbalance issues: majority classes are over‑predicted while minority classes, especially EC6, have zero recall despite reasonable ROC‑AUC. The authors recommend target‑specific threshold tuning and conformal calibration as post‑processing safeguards to expose and correct these hidden errors.
