Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) clustering is essential for identifying cell types, but high dimensionality, sparsity, dropout, and technical noise hinder robust expression representation and cell graph construction. Existing masked autoencoders mainly use expression recovery for feature reconstruction, while graph clustering methods usually depend on fixed KNN graphs and do not feed recovered expression back into graph optimization. We propose scKDGM, a KAN-guided dynamic graph masked learning framework for scRNA-seq clustering. scKDGM uses graph-aware distribution preserving gene masking (GDP-Mask) to perturb cell identity, a KAN-based TAKGCN encoder to learn masked-view representations, mask-guided expression recovery to construct a dynamic graph, and cross-view contrastive learning to transfer recovery signals into topology updates. A ZINB loss models overdispersion and zero inflation. Experiments on 12 real scRNA-seq datasets show that scKDGM outperforms 10 baselines in average NMI and ARI.
Single-cell datasets are increasingly costly to store, audit, and reuse for model training. Dimensionality reduction and dataset distillation can reduce this burden, but conventional distillation methods often produce synthetic expression profiles that cannot be traced to an assa…
Pre-trained foundation models (FMs) have begun transforming single-cell genomics, but scaling them raises privacy concerns. Moreover, unlike text data, single-cell data is unordered and exhibits a unique tabular structure that current single-cell FMs overlook. We introduce Tabula…
Spatially resolved omics studies increasingly combine transcriptomic and epigenomic assays, yet downstream analysis is often still performed using single-modality pipelines. We present LATTICE (Latent Alignment of Tissue-level and Transcriptomic Information for Cross-modal Embedd…
Background: Untargeted LC-MS metabolomics requires a long chain of preprocessing decisions, each with several equally defensible options. Analysts typically commit to one pipeline and report the resulting feature shortlist. How strongly that shortlist depends on choices that were…
Spatial transcriptomics assays remain costly and technically demanding, restricting transcriptome-wide profiling to specialist settings and preventing routine clinical deployment. Predicting spatially resolved gene expression from H&E histology could close this gap, yet current m…
Genomic prediction models often fail to transfer across institutions because sequencing panels differ across sites, creating structural feature missingness at deployment. Existing approaches to this challenge typically restrict analysis to genes shared across cohorts, exclude pat…
