GENA-LM (gena-lm-bert-base-t2t)
GENA-LM is a Family of Open-Source Foundational Models for Long DNA Sequences.
GENA-LM models are transformer masked language models trained on human DNA sequence.
Differences between GENA-LM (gena-lm-bert-base-t2t) and DNABERT:
- BPE tokenization instead of k-mers;
- input sequence size is about 4500 nucleotides (512 BPE tokens) compared to 512 nucleotides of DNABERT
- pre-training on T2T vs. GRCh38.p13 human genome assembly.

Examples
Load pre-trained model
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('AIRI-Institute/gena-lm-bert-base-t2t')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('AIRI-Institute/gena-lm-bert-base-t2t')
How to load the model to fine-tune it on classification task
from src.gena_lm.modeling_bert import BertForSequenceClassification
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('AIRI-Institute/gena-lm-bert-base-t2t')
model = BertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('AIRI-Institute/gena-lm-bert-base-t2t')
Model description
GENA-LM (gena-lm-bert-base-t2t) model is trained in a masked language model (MLM) fashion, following the methods proposed in the BigBird paper by masking 15% of tokens. Model config for gena-lm-bert-base-t2t is similar to the bert-base:
- 512 Maximum sequence length
- 12 Layers, 12 Attention heads
- 768 Hidden size
- 32k Vocabulary size
We pre-trained gena-lm-bert-base-t2t using the latest T2T human genome assembly (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/GCA_009914755.3/). The data was augmented by sampling mutations from 1000-genome SNPs (gnomAD dataset). Pre-training was performed for 2,100,000 iterations with batch size 256 and sequence length was equal to 512 tokens. We modified Transformer with Pre-Layer normalization, but without the final layer LayerNorm.
