The increasing interest in chromatin conformation inside the nucleus and the availability of genome-wide experimental data make it possible to develop computational methods that can increase the quality of the data and thus overcome the limitations of high experimental costs. Here we develop a deep-learning approach for increasing Hi-C data resolution by appending additional information about genome sequence. In this approach, we utilize two different deep-learning algorithms: the image-to-image model, which enhances Hi-C resolution by itself, and the sequence-to-image model, which uses additional information about the underlying genome sequence for further resolution improvement. Both models are combined with the simple head model that provides a more accurate enhancement of initial low-resolution Hi-C data. The code is freely available in a GitHub repository: https://github.com/koritsky/DL2021_HI-C.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
