PRiMeFlow: Capturing Complex Expression Heterogeneity in Perturbation Response Modelling

Predicting the effects of perturbations in-silico on cell state can identify drivers of cell behavior at scale and accelerate drug discovery. However, modeling challenges remain due to the inherent heterogeneity of single cell gene expression and the complex, latent gene dependencies. Here, we present PRiMeFlow, an end-to-end flow matching based approach to directly model the effects of genetic and small molecule perturbations in the gene expression space. The distribution-fitting approach taken by PRiMeFlow enables it to accurately approximate the empirical distribution of single-cell gene expression, which we demonstrate through extensive benchmarking inside PerturBench. Through ablatio...
