• Authors: Thomas P. Wytock and Adilson E. Motter
• Abstract summary: Relationship between microscopic observations and macroscopic behavior is a fundamental open question in biophysical systems. We develop a unified approach that---in contrast with existing methods---predicts cell type from macromolecular data even when accounting for the scale of human tissue diversity and limitations in the available data.

• Abstract: The relationship between microscopic observations and macroscopic behavior is a fundamental open question in biophysical systems. Here, we develop a unified approach that---in contrast with existing methods---predicts cell type from macromolecular data even when accounting for the scale of human tissue diversity and limitations in the available data. We achieve these benefits by applying a k-nearest-neighbors algorithm after projecting our data onto the eigenvectors of the correlation matrix inferred from many observations of gene expression or chromatin conformation. Our approach identifies variations in epigenotype that impact cell type, thereby supporting the cell type attractor hypothesis and representing the first step toward model-independent control strategies in biological systems.

  This paper presents a novel approach that leverages domain variability to learn representations that are conditionally invariant to unwanted variability or distractors. We apply our method to grand biological challenges, such as data integration in single-cell genomics. Specifically, the proposed approach helps to disentangle biological signals from data biases that are unrelated to the target task or the causal explanation of interest.

  Clustering is commonly performed as an initial analysis step for uncovering structure in 'omics datasets. We propose a multi-view Bayesian mixture model that identifies groups of variables (views"), each of which defines a distinct clustering structure. We consider applications in stratified medicine, for which our principal goal is to identify clusters of patients that define distinct, clinically actionable disease subtypes.
