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.

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 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.
