UCE
Universal Cell Embedding — species-agnostic cell representation model for cross-species analysis.
Overview
The Universal Cell Embedding (UCE) model produces a unified embedding space for cells across species. It is trained using a protein language model (ESM) to map gene expression profiles to a shared latent space, enabling cross-species cell type comparisons.
