Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract One of the very active research areas in bioinformatics is DNA similarity analysis. There are several approaches using alignment-based or alignment-free methods to analyze similarities/dissimilarities between DNA sequences. In this work, we introduce a novel representation of DNA sequences, using n -ary Cartesian products of graphs for arbitrary positive integers n . Each of the component graphs in the representing Cartesian product of each DNA sequence contain combinatorial information of certain tuples of nucleotides appearing in the DNA sequence. We further introduce a metric space structure to the set of all Cartesian products of graphs that represent a given collection of DNA sequences in order to be able to compare different Cartesian products of graphs, which in turn signifies similarities/dissimilarities between DNA sequences. We test our proposed method on several datasets including Human Papillomavirus, Human rhinovirus, Influenza A virus, and Mammals. We compare our method to other methods in literature, which indicates that our analysis results are comparable in terms of time complexity and high accuracy, and in one dataset, our method performs the best in comparison with other methods.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
