Knowledge Graph Modulated Deep Learning for Limited-Sample Clinical Data Analysis

arXiv:2605.24162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Biological systems are governed by structured molecular interactions, where pathways, regulatory circuits, and functional gene relationships shape cellular behavior and disease progression. Much of this knowledge is naturally represented as graphs. However, most biomedical AI models cannot directly use graph-encoded biological knowledge and instead require compressed low-dimensional representations, which can lose important structure and reduce performance, especially in limited-sample clinical studies. Here, we introduce Graph-in-Graph (GiG), a

Why this matters
Why now

This development leverages advancements in deep learning with the increasing availability and sophistication of biological knowledge graphs, addressing the critical challenge of limited clinical data.

Why it’s important

It improves the ability of AI models to derive insights from complex biological data, potentially accelerating drug discovery, personalized medicine, and clinical decision support, especially where data is scarce.

What changes

AI models can now more effectively integrate structured biological knowledge directly, moving beyond compressed representations to retain crucial information from biological systems.
