Abstract
In this study, we present a hybrid modeling framework that integrates piecewise Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression with Dynamic Flux Balance Analysis (dFBA) to simulate and optimize Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell fed-batch culture. Twenty-four Ambr15 experiments were conducted to systematically vary feed and inoculum compositions. Time-resolved metabolite, biomass, and Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) concentrations were collected and modeled. The hybrid model achieved high prediction accuracy (Normalized Mean Squared Error (NMSE) < 0.15 for most metabolites) and provided interpretable flux profiles. Multivariate analysis revealed consistent metabolic signatures tied to media formulation, where specific feed–inoculum combinations drove shifts in glycolysis, TCA cycle flux, and nitrogen metabolism. These insights demonstrate the model’s capacity to capture key metabolic adaptations and support data-driven media optimization in CHO cell culture. • A piecewise hybrid model developed and validated for CHO fed-batch culture. • Bioreactor experiments were performed with 24 different media blends. • A balanced production\consumption of key metabolites results in higher mAb titer. • Specific feed–inoculum blends drive shifts in glycolytic and TCA cycle fluxes. • Hybrid model results in good predictions for varying media composition (NMSE<0.15).

Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
