• Abstract: The spatial context of single-cell gene expression data is crucial for many downstream analyses, yet often remains inaccessible due to practical and technical limitations, restricting the utility of such datasets. In this paper, we propose a generic representation learning and transfer learning framework dp-VAE, capable of reconstructing the spatial coordinates associated with the provided gene expression data. Central to our approach is a distance-preserving regularizer integrated into the loss function during training, ensuring the model effectively captures and utilizes spatial context signals from reference datasets. During the inference stage, the produced latent representation of the model can be used to reconstruct or impute the spatial context of the provided gene expression by solving a constrained optimization problem. We also explore the theoretical connections between distance-preserving loss, distortion, and the bi-Lipschitz condition within generative models. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of dp-VAE in different tasks involving training robustness, out-of-sample evaluation, and transfer learning inference applications by testing it over 27 publicly available datasets. This underscores its applicability to a wide range of genomics studies that were previously hindered by the absence of spatial data.

  We propose a novel re-visible dual-domain self-supervised deep unfolding network to address these issues. We design a deep unfolding network based on Chambolle and Pock Proximal Point Algorithm (DUN-CP-PPA) to achieve end-to-end reconstruction. Experiments conducted on the fastMRI and IXI datasets demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in terms of reconstruction performance.

  Unsupervised learning aims to capture the underlying structure of potentially large and high-dimensional datasets. In this work, we revisit these approaches under the lens of optimal transport and exhibit relationships with the Gromov-Wasserstein problem. This unveils a new general framework, called distributional reduction, that recovers DR and clustering as special cases and allows addressing them jointly within a single optimization problem.

  Deep generative models have demonstrated successful applications in learning non-linear data distributions through a number of latent variables. The nonlinearity of the generator implies that the latent space shows an unsatisfactory projection of the data space, which results in poor representation learning. We show that geodesics and accurate computation can substantially improve the performance of deep generative models.

  We argue that the performance of the final classifier depends on the data separation present in the latent space and visual separation present in the projection. We demonstrate our results by the classification of five real-world challenging image datasets of human intestinal parasites with only 1% supervised samples.
