A different foundation

DNA is not natural language.

The rules encoded in genomes often reside in local motifs, functional regions, and regulatory relationships across scales. Meno starts from the structure of biological sequences, so the model can show not only what it predicts, but also which knowledge it uses.

Meno architecture

From sequence to callable biological knowledge

Meno organizes sequence patterns outside model parameters as readable conditional memory, making knowledge formation, retrieval, and iteration more transparent.

01

Memory organized by functional region

Local patterns are modeled in partitioned genomic contexts, reducing semantic mixing and preserving representations that better reflect coding, regulatory, and other functional regions.

02

Explicit retrieval of k-mers and motifs

For a new sequence, the model retrieves relevant patterns from memory and uses the same evidence for both prediction and interpretation.

03

Gates trace knowledge contribution

Gating signals reveal how different memories contribute to an output, helping researchers inspect the positions, patterns, and functional regions the model relies on.

Interpretable by design

Interpretability is built into the architecture

Rather than adding explanations after prediction, Meno preserves observable memory structures while learning and retrieving knowledge, creating clearer leads for biological validation.

Memory space

Memory space separates regional semantics

As memory units organize around sequence context, coding and non-coding regions develop distinct distributions, providing a window into the model's internal biological semantics.

One knowledge core

Explain, predict, and design with one knowledge core

Meno turns model outputs into genomic knowledge assets that can accumulate across tasks, datasets, and experimental cycles.

Explain

Explain why a sequence works

Identify local patterns, functional regions, and memory contributions that can inform experimental design.

Predict

Predict variant-function relationships

Combine sequence representations with retrievable memory for functional, phenotypic, and regulatory modeling.

Design

Design sequences for validation

Generate and rank candidate sequences around a target function, then update model knowledge with experimental feedback.
