Generalizable single-cell perturbation response prediction using energy-guided flow matching

The paper introduces scEGFlow, an energy‑guided flow matching framework that predicts how single cells respond to perturbations by modeling continuous transitions from control to perturbed states. It uses conditional flow matching and condition‑specific energy gradients to dynamically adjust predictions without retraining, achieving superior performance on imaging and transcriptomic benchmarks, even for unseen perturbations or limited data. The method preserves cellular manifold geometry, heterogeneity, and accurately recapitulates gene‑expression regulatory patterns.

Distribution-Conditioned Transport

The paper introduces Distribution‑Conditioned Transport (DCT), a framework that learns transport maps conditioned on embeddings of source and target distributions, allowing generalization to unseen distribution pairs. DCT supports semi‑supervised learning for distributional forecasting by leveraging distributions observed at only one condition. It is agnostic to the transport mechanism and is demonstrated on synthetic benchmarks and four biological applications, including batch effect transfer in single‑cell genomics and modeling T‑cell receptor sequence evolution.

Control-Anchored Residual Flow Matching Conditioned on Gene Geometry for Virtual Cell Perturbation Modeling

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.
