Researchers Develop Method for Direct Generation of Regulatory DNA
Researchers at HSE University have developed a model for generating promoters and enhancers—DNA sequences that regulate gene activity. The model works directly with DNA nucleotides, without first transforming them into a continuous numerical representation. This solution could be useful for applications in synthetic biology and gene therapy. The study results were presented at the ICLR 2026 Workshop ‘Generative AI in Genomics (Gen^2): Barriers and Frontiers.’

ProcrustesGPT: Compressing LLMs with Structured Matrices and Orthogonal Transformations

P. 26937–26949.
Grishina E., Gorbunov M., Rakhuba M.

Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate impressive results in natural language processing tasks but require a significant amount of computational and memory resources. Structured matrix representations are a promising way for reducing the number of parameters of these models. However, it seems unrealistic to expect that weight matrices of pretrained models can be accurately represented by structured matrices without any fine-tuning.To overcome this issue, we utilize the fact that LLM output is invariant under certain orthogonal transformations of weight matrices.This insight can be leveraged to identify transformations that significantly improve the compressibility of weights within structured classes.The proposed approach is applicable to various types of structured matrices that support efficient projection operations. Code is available at: https://github.com/GrishKate/ProcrustesGPT.
