Segzoo: a turnkey system that summarizes genome annotations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
MOTIVATION: Segmentation and automated genome annotation (SAGA) techniques, such as Segway and ChromHMM, assign labels to every part of the genome, identifying similar patterns across multiple genomic input signals. Inferring biological meaning in these patterns remains challenging. Doing so requires a time-consuming process of manually downloading reference data, running multiple analysis methods, and interpreting many individual results. RESULTS: To simplify these tasks, we developed the turnkey system Segzoo. As input, Segzoo only requires a genome annotation file in browser extensible data (BED) format. It automatically downloads the rest of the data required for comparisons. Segzoo performs analyses using these data and summarizes results in a single visualization. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The source code for Python ≥ 3.7 on Linux is freely available for download at https://github.com/hoffmangroup/segzoo under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. Segzoo is also available in the Bioconda package segzoo: https://anaconda.org/bioconda/segzoo. We have deposited in Zenodo the version of the Segzoo source which produced the results in this article (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10988775), other code and data used to produce the results (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10477083), and the results (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10477106).
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
