From Performance to Viability: A Bootstrap Framework for Latent-Space Representation Learning in Adaptive Biological Systems

arXiv:2606.01374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Observable performance is commonly used to characterize biological systems. In adaptive systems, however, similar performances may arise from distinct organizations, and configurations that appear comparable at a given time may follow different longitudinal trajectories. This limitation motivates a methodological framework for moving beyond performance-based interpretation without assuming a complete mechanistic model in advance. This article proposes a bootstrap framework for latent-space representation learning in adaptive biological systems. H
The paper contributes to ongoing research at the intersection of AI/ML and biological systems, driven by advancements in both fields that allow for more sophisticated modeling.
This framework offers a new approach to understanding complex adaptive biological systems by focusing on latent-space representation, potentially enabling better prediction and intervention without needing full mechanistic models.
The focus shifts from merely observable performance to deeper, latent organizational principles, offering a more robust understanding of biological system dynamics.
