truly wild that a paper in a journal title ALGORITHMS of molecular biology does not have available code

truly insane how sparse the information in ML papers from 5+ years ago is. no code, no comments, no justifications, just vibes

my paper is finally out! i consider this work as a first step in bridging the gap between stochastic and deterministic models of single cell transcriptomics. we model the intermediate N limit via a data driven potential that gives rise to the kNN estimate of the sampling density. let me explain! 1/
Fokker-Planck diffusion maps of microglial transcriptomes reveal radial differentiation into substates associated with Alzheimer’s pathology - Communications Biology
Combining a novel, biophysically plausible clustering scheme with statistics and interpretable machine learning yields insights into microglia dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease.

ive said it once and ill say it again: its incredible that we can learn anything at all using statistics.

if your the only purpose of the “science” you do is to generate capital, it’s not science. unless you freely disseminate your findings and methodology to the public, it’s not science. it’s product development.
