Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Genes associated with the same disease frequently engage in mutual biological interactions, e.g., perturbation within a specific neighborhood in the molecular interactome, often referred to as the disease module. This has propelled the advancement of network-based approaches toward elucidating the molecular bases of human diseases. Although many computational methods have been developed to integrate the molecular interactome and omics profiles to extract such context-dependent disease modules, approaches that leverage multi-omics for disease-module detection are still lacking. Here, we developed a statistical physics approach based on the random-field O(n) model (RFOnM) to fill this gap. We applied the RFOnM approach to integrate gene-expression data and genome-wide association studies or mRNA data and DNA methylation for several complex diseases with the human interactome. We found that the RFOnM approach outperforms existing single omics methods in most of the complex diseases considered in this study.

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.
