DNABERT-2 117M · frozen pair embeddings

This MFASS pipeline uses a frozen DNABERT-2 encoder with an assay-specific logistic-regression head. It is distinct from the base encoder and from end-to-end fine-tuning.

Evaluated procedure

Validated 170-base reference and mutant sequences are embedded separately. Attention-mask means of final hidden states are combined as reference plus mutant-minus-reference. Standardisation and balanced L2 logistic regression are fitted only on the training arm.

Strengths and limitations

Strengths supported by sources

  • Separates the utility of a frozen representation from encoder fine-tuning and pins the checkpoint and head settings.MFASS v2 pinned rewire artifacts · benchmarks/mfass/README.md, DNABERT-2 protocol; results/dnabert2-117m-frozen-pair-logreg.json, config at bee9133b83f3aedaf2bbb9013f1875515845607e

Limitations and conditions

  • The result tests this short-context supervised pipeline. It does not establish how all DNABERT-2 adaptations or all foundation models perform.MFASS v2 pinned rewire artifacts · benchmarks/mfass/README.md, DNABERT-2 protocol; results/dnabert2-117m-frozen-pair-logreg.json, config at bee9133b83f3aedaf2bbb9013f1875515845607e
