Analyzing Genomic Foundation Models for Viral Sequence Identification
Rapid and accurate identification of viral sequences underpins clinical diagnostics, epidemiological surveillance, and the safety testing of biological products, yet the established alignment-based methods such as BLAST are inherently closed-set, with accuracy tied to how well a query is already represented in the reference database. Recent advances in genomic foundation models (GFMs) have…
