Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Micromix is a flexible web platform for sharing and integrating microbial omics data, including RNA sequencing and transposon-insertion sequencing. Currently, the lack of solutions for making data web-accessible results in omics data being fragmented across supplementary spreadsheets or languishing as raw read data in public repositories. Micromix solves this problem and can be easily deployed on a standard web server or using cloud services. It is organism-agnostic, accommodates data and annotations from various sources, and allows filtering based on KEGG pathways, Gene Ontology terms, and curated gene sets. Visualizations are provided through a plug-in system that integrates existing visualization services and allows rapid development of new services, with available plug-ins currently supporting interactive heatmap and clustering functions. Users can upload their own data in a variety of formats to perform integrative analyses in the context of existing datasets. To support collaborative research, Micromix allows sharing of interactive sessions that maintain defined filtering and/or visualization options. We demonstrate the utility of Micromix with case studies focusing on the SPI-2 pathogenicity island in Salmonella enterica and polysaccharide utilization loci in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, showcasing the platform's capabilities for integrating, filtering, and visualizing diverse functional genomic datasets. Micromix is available at http://micromix.systems.

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.
