molcrawl-rna-celltype-bert-medium

Model Description

GPT-2 medium (345M parameters) fine-tuned on cell-type specific RNA sequences, starting from the molcrawl-rna-gpt2-medium pre-trained model.

• Model Type: bert
• Data Type: RNA
• Training Date: 2026-05-01

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForMaskedLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("kojima-lab/molcrawl-rna-celltype-bert-medium")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("kojima-lab/molcrawl-rna-celltype-bert-medium")

# Predict masked RNA token
# Use tokenizer.mask_token instead of hardcoded "[MASK]":
# BERT-style tokenizers vary ("[MASK]", "<mask>", etc.)
if tokenizer.mask_token is None:
    raise ValueError("This tokenizer has no mask_token; masked LM inference is not supported.")
prompt = "AUGCAUGC{MASK}AUGCAUGC".replace("{MASK}", tokenizer.mask_token)
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
mask_index = (inputs["input_ids"] == tokenizer.mask_token_id).nonzero(as_tuple=True)[1]

with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs)
logits = outputs.logits

predicted_token_id = logits[0, mask_index].argmax(dim=-1)
predicted_token = tokenizer.decode(predicted_token_id)
result = prompt.replace(tokenizer.mask_token, predicted_token)
print(f"Predicted: {result}")

Example Output

Inference test (CPU). Important: this tokenizer uses a WordLevel gene-ID vocabulary without a text-mode pre_tokenizer, so feed input as a list of ENSEMBL IDs (and the mask token) directly into convert_tokens_to_ids, not as a single text string.
