# Model - GvEM (Genomic Variant Embedding Model)
**GvEM** is a PyTorch-based deep learning model designed to embed and model genomic mutation data from VCF (Variant Call Format) files using a biologically-informed hierarchy:
**Pathway → Chromosome → Gene → Mutations**
---
## Hierarchy of input data
example_data = {
'sample1': {
'pathway1': {
'chr1': {
'gene1': [
{
'impact': 'HIGH',
'reference': 'A',
'alternate': 'T'
}
]
}
}
}
}
---
## Features
* **VCF Parser**: Converts standard VCF files into a hierarchical JSON-like structure.
* **MutationEmbedder**: Learns embeddings for categorical mutation features (scalable).
* **GeneEncoder**: Processes lists of mutations using Transformer and heirarchical attention to get gene-level representations.
* **ChromosomeEncoder**: Aggregates gene encodings.
* **PathwayEncoder**: Aggregates chromosome encodings to yield final sample representation.
* **Scalable**: Easily extensible to new fields or biological groupings.
* **HuggingFace Compatible**: Designed for sharing and experimentation on the 🤗 Hub.

## Uses
# Direct Use :
* Obtain sample level embeddings
* Mutation pattern learning
* Transfer learning across genomic datasets
# Downstream Use :
* Variant-based disease prediction (e.g., cancer, rare diseases, ASD)
* Multi-omics fusion models (tabular + image + VCF)
* Cohort level mutation analysis
* Fine-tuning for prognosis, drug response prediction, or variant effect interpretation.
# Limitations
* Use in clinical decision-making without expert oversight.
* Input variants must already be annotated.
* Application to non-human genomes, unless explicitly fine-tuned for those organisms.
* High-resolution functional variant prediction - FUTURE DEVELOPMENT TO BE MADE
