ReLU: Refined Chunk Embeddings Learning for Ultra-long SNP Genomic Prediction in Crop Breeding

Genomic prediction can accelerate crop breeding by predicting phenotypes from genome-wide SNP sequences. In practice, this task operates in a severe p \gg n regime, hundreds of thousands to millions of SNPs but only thousands of samples, making end-to-end deep learning prone to overfitting. Genomic foundation models he...
