Genomics, transcription regulation, and machine learning.
If they behave anything like the introverts I know, we won't have to worry about robo spam callers anymore because the LLMs will have to psyche themselves up for hours before they can make the call.

Hopefully this'll make our models a bit more accessible/usable for all the PyTorch folks out there (including me now 😂).

(1) small tweaks to bpnetlite's BPNet class to reduce memory footprint & enable training on large, multi-individual datasets and (2) a full reimplementation of CLIPNET in PT using BPNet as its backbone and w/ 2114 bp context length (instead of the original's 1 kb).

Read the prompt again. I guess some of those papers aren't directly related for gene expression specifically, but successes in epigenomic VEP should be part of the discussion of gene expression VEP IMO.

It's missing a bunch of important papers too. Fine-tuning work from Ioannidis & Pollard labs, DeepAllele, BigRNA, ChromBPNet, my stuff (obvious COI but it's relevant). Not a cutoff date issue since it's got the pretty recent review from Ioannidis lab.

I guess that's true, but using language models to learn a cell state autoencoder feels a bit overkill to me.

It's also not clear to me why we should expect MLM to work for gene expression vectors? Like at least for PLMs and DNALMs I can see the language analogy (and PLMs actually work) and how we might learn something from MLM training. What's being learned from ordered gene expression vectors?

My next pull request will make wingdings the default font for sequence logos.

I think you mean this review? The Stark paper is a cool one, but definitely an example of conflating design method w/ oracle
