Prima Mente Launches Pleiades, a Large-Scale Human Whole-Epigenome Foundation Model with Clinical Applications for Alzheimer’s Disease
Prima Mente today announced the launch of Pleiades, a family of large-scale foundation models created to understand the epigenomic and molecular landscape of human disease. Pleiades represents generative transformers (90M, 600M, and 7B parameters) trained on 1.9 trillion tokens at single-nucleotide resolution. The work is introduced in a newly released preprint, authored in collaboration with researchers from University of Oxford, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and University of Gothenburg.
