Abstract
Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) play a key role in biological processes. However, GRNs are diverse under different biological conditions. Reconstructing gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from gene expression has become an important opportunity and challenge in the past decades. Although there are a lot of existing methods to infer the topology of GRNs, such as mutual information, random forest, and partial least squares, the accuracy is still low due to the noise and high dimension of the expression data. In this paper, we introduce an ensemble Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS) based method to reconstruct the directed GRNs from multifactorial gene expression data, called PBMarsNet. PBMarsNet incorporates part mutual information (PMI) to pre-weight the candidate regulatory genes and then uses MARS to detect the nonlinear regulatory links. Moreover, we apply bootstrap to run the MARS multiple times and average the outputs of each MARS as the final score of regulatory links. The results on DREAM4 challenge and DREAM5 challenge datasets show PBMarsNet has a superior performance and generalization over other state-of-the-art methods.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
