The transcript segments this claim was taken from
“Whereas if you ask a bit or if you wanna predict a cell type or something like that, you know, for that mostly logistic regression is fine. But if you wanna predict something a bit more difficult, for example, in our NicheFormer paper, which is a foundation model for spatial omics, we showed we had a new task which we introduced where you say you have a, you have the gene expression, you have sort of this state, a latent space of a single cell.”21:34Report a misattribution
