From Circles to Signals: Representation Learning on Ultra-Long Extrachromosomal Circular DNA
This paper introduces eccDNAMamba, a bidirectional state space model built on the Mamba-2 framework that overcomes the limitations of existing genomic foundation models by efficiently scaling to ultra-long sequences and preserving the intrinsic circular topology of extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) to achieve superior performance in cancer-related prediction tasks.
