Conditional Neural Optimal Transport for Predicting Cellular Phenotypes from Molecular Structure

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.14293v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: High-content microscopy enables systematic profiling of cellular responses to chemical perturbations, but the scale of the chemical space makes exhaustive phenotypic characterization experimentally infeasible. This motivates computational models that can predict image-derived phenotypes without acquiring the corresponding treated cells. We formulate molecule-induced phenotype prediction as an inductive conditional transport problem in image repre
