RECOMMENDED! Our initial tests were like…wait what? 🤯

I’m sure ⁦@HutchInnovation⁩ ⁦@EvNewell1⁩ would love some feedback.

Delighted to share work led by Omar Kana @ZadeQana, now out in @Patterns_CP, on generative modeling of single-cell perturbations using variational autoencoders (VAEs). (1/6)

its almost like.. embeddings was compression the whole time.

wordcount is a embedding and a compression that loses position sensitive to common words

tdidf is an embedding and its a compression that is insensitive to document frequency

gzip is an embedding like tfidf
but contains positional information and a has a tokenizer.

Absolutely love this.

Postdoc/PhD alert! Exciting project on a stochastic liver tumor model, which allows tracking the tumor niche across a spectrum of stages in the same liver by multimodal single-cell sequencing, seqFISH and tailored machine learning. Please get in touch! 🙏 for RT.
