Question about the prediction confidence during inference #85

Open FLLLIGHT opened 1 year ago

FLLLIGHT commented 1 year ago

Excellent work!

I'm confused about the method to calculate the prediction confidence of generated genes during the inference time. Please remind me if I missed anything in the paper.

Thanks!

Hi thanks for the question. Which application do you mean specifically?

Hi thanks for the question. Which application do you mean specifically?

For example, when generating from cell prompt, as mentioned in paper, “scGPT selects the top 1/K genes from the unknown set with the highest prediction confidence to be included as known genes in the next iteration i + 1.” I'd like to know how to calculate the prediction confidence of generated genes.
