Protein engineering has recently seen tremendous transformation due to machine learning (ML) tools that predict structure from sequence at unprecedented precision. Predicting catalytic activity, however, remains challenging, restricting our capabilit...
Non-linear interactions among single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), genes, and pathways play an important role in human diseases, but identifying these interactions is a challenging task. Neural networks are state-of-the-art predictors in many doma...
Although genetic variant effects often interact nonadditively, strategies to uncover epistasis remain in their infancy. Here we develop low-signal signed iterative random forests to elucidate the complex genetic architecture of cardiac hypertrophy, u...
BACKGROUND: Accurate genetic risk prediction and understanding the mechanisms underlying complex diseases are essential for effective intervention and precision medicine. However, current methods often struggle to capture the intricate and subtle gen...
Polygenic risk score (PRS) is a widely used approach for predicting individuals' genetic risk of complex diseases, playing a pivotal role in advancing precision medicine. Traditional PRS methods, predominantly following a linear structure, often fall...
We present MoCHI, a tool to fit interpretable models using deep mutational scanning data. MoCHI infers free energy changes, as well as interaction terms (energetic couplings) for specified biophysical models, including from multimodal phenotypic data...

Identifying high-order Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) interactions of additive genetic model is crucial for detecting complex disease gene-type and predicting pathogenic genes of various disorders. We present a novel framework for high-order ge...
The extent to which genetic interactions affect observed phenotypes is generally unknown because current interaction detection approaches only consider simple interactions between top SNPs of genes. We introduce an open-source framework for increasin...
Mammalian genomes have multiple enhancers spanning an ultralong distance (>megabases) to modulate important genes, but it is unclear how these enhancers coordinate to achieve this task. We combine multiplexed CRISPRi screening with machine learning t...
BACKGROUND: Identifying interaction effects between genes is one of the main tasks of genome-wide association studies aiming to shed light on the biological mechanisms underlying complex diseases. Multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) is a popul...
