**HistoPrism** is a deep learning model designed to bridge the gap between histology images (H&E) and spatial gene expression. 

Check out the details in the [github repo](https://github.com/susuhu/HistoPrism).

This repository contains the weights for the checkpoints in the paper trained on the HEST v1.1.0 dataset.

## 📄 Paper

## 💻 Usage
To load this checkpoint, ensure you have the HistoPrism codebase or compatible model definition.

```python
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
import torch

# Download the model checkpoint
checkpoint_path = hf_hub_download(repo_id="HuSusu/HistoPrism", filename="HistoPrism_split0.ckpt")

# Load weights (Pseudo-code: replace with your actual model class)
# model = HistoPrism(config=...)
# checkpoint = torch.load(path, map_location=map_location)
# model.load_state_dict(checkpoint["model_state"])
