InstaDeep Research is pleased to announce the open-sourcing of its Nucleotide Transformer on the HuggingFace platform. The Nucleotide Transformer project introduces a collection of four DNA large language models, with parameter counts ranging between 500M and 2.5B, which were developed in collaboration with NVIDIA and the Technical University of Munich. As part of this work,… Read more »
InstaDeep’s research team is off to a great start in 2023 with a new record of four confirmed papers: two papers on the main track, including a spotlight; and two workshop papers, including an oral presentation. ICLR, the globally respected International Conference on Learning Representations, is being held at the Kigali Convention Centre in Rwanda… Read more »
InstaDeep is pleased to announce a new collaboration with the Technical University of Munich and NVIDIA, using the UK-based Cambridge-1 supercomputer to train large language models (LLMs) on diverse genomic datasets to examine the impact of model scale and data diversity on downstream task performance. As part of the work, multiple foundation models for genomics… Read more »
You are what you eat. We’ve all been told this, but the truth is what we eat is often more complex than we are – genetically at least. Take a grain of rice. The plant that produces rice has 40,000 to 50,000 genes, double that of humans, yet we know far more about the composition… Read more »
Each year, the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO) gathers the leading global experts in the domain of genetic and evolutionary computing. This year, InstaDeep’s research team presented two main conference papers and one workshop paper at the event, which took place in Boston, MA between 9-13 July. The three works result from a close… Read more »

This research was authored by Scott Cameron at the University of Oxford and InstaDeep, in collaboration with Prof Stephen Roberts, Dr Arnu Pretorius of InstaDeep and Tyron Cameron of Discovery Insure South Africa. It is Cameron’s first publication from his PhD, which is funded by InstaDeep. Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) have been consistently used across… Read more »
Early Warning System combines Spike protein structural modeling with artificial intelligence (AI) to detect and monitor high-risk SARS-CoV-2 variants, identifying >90% of WHO-designated variants on average two months prior to officially receiving the designation Study introduces a new method of combining publicly available SARS-CoV-2 sequence information with predictive analytics to effectively detect and monitor potential… Read more »
Our collaboration with Google AI, “On pseudo-absence generation and machine learning for locust breeding ground prediction in Africa”, describes an early detection system for desert locust outbreaks across the African continent. This research will be presented at two NeurIPS 2021 machine learning conference workshops: Artificial Intelligence for Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Response (AI+HADR) and Machine… Read more »
