Embeddings of genomic region sets capture rich biological associations in lower dimensions

Erfaneh Gharavi, Aaron Gu, Guangtao Zheng, Jason P. Smith, Hyun Jae Cho, Aidong Zhang, Donald E. Brown, Nathan C. Sheffield

The paper introduces a method to represent genomic region sets as embeddings using a modified word2vec approach, showing it effectively captures biological associations in lower dimensions.
