We evaluated these AI models to classic bioinformatics methods for these tasks, which I think is important! It can look impressive to compare to a smaller model or different dataset and do very well on a task, when actually a simple informatic approach (e.g. sketching) does even better

Our new preprint is out! We train a transformer on gene order and gene content of bacterial pathogens, applying it to a range of epidemiological and evolutionary analyses (1/8) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
