Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Single-cell multiomics technologies generate paired measurements of different cellular modalities, such as gene expression and chromatin accessibility. However, multiomics technologies are more expensive than their unimodal counterparts, resulting in smaller and fewer available multiomics datasets. Here, we present scPairing, a deep learning model inspired by Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training, which embeds different modalities from the same single cells onto a common embedding space. We leverage the common embedding space to generate novel multiomics data following bridge integration, a method that uses an existing multiomics bridge to link unimodal data. Through extensive benchmarking, we show that scPairing constructs an embedding space that fully captures both coarse and fine biological structures. We then use scPairing to generate new multiomics data from retina, immune, and renal cells. Furthermore, we extend scPairing to generate trimodal data. Researchers can use these generated multiomics datasets to discover new biological relationships across modalities or confirm existing hypotheses.

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 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.
