We translated a validation strategy in Materials to Small molecules.

A key problem in cross-validation is splitting of data. Here we propose a step-forward CV. People are used to scaffold splits, time splits etc. but these all have limitations.

Recent advances in machine learning for materials science have significantly improved the prediction of novel materials. Building on these methods, we have adapted them for drug discovery...

Thrilled to share our approach for language model-guided discovery of unknown mammalian metabolites: DeepMet. We’ve now used this approach to discover ~50 new human and mouse metabolites! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Language model-guided anticipation and discovery of unknown metabolites
Despite decades of study, large parts of the mammalian metabolome remain unexplored. Mass spectrometry-based metabolomics routinely detects thousands of small molecule-associated peaks within human ti...

Two BioML starter packs now:

Pack 1: go.bsky.app/2VWBcCd
Pack 2: go.bsky.app/Bw84Hmc

DM if you want to be included (or nominate people who should be!)
I tried to make a bioml starter pack. DM if you want me to add or remove you?

Anybody have a bioml starter pack?

We got an 🥂 Outstanding Paper Award!! Cannot be more grateful 🥹 This is super validating for our long pursuit of computational work on QUD.

Congrats to the amazing @yatingwu.bsky.social, Ritika Mangla, Alex Dimakis, @gregdnlp.bsky.social
Wednesday at #EMNLP: @yatingwu.bsky.social will present our work connecting curiosity and questions in discourse. We built strong models to predict salience, outperforming large LLMs.

👉[Oral] Discourse+Phonology+Syntax2 10:30-12:00 @ Flagler
