arXiv:2604.01475v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parkinsons disease (PD) alters cortical neural dynamics, yet reliable non-invasive electrophysiological biomarkers remain elusive. This study examined whether interpretable EEG features capturing complementary aspects of neural dynamics can discriminate Parkinsonian neural states. A comprehensive set of interpretable features was extracted and grouped into Standard descriptors (spectral power, phase synchronization, time-domain statistics) and Dynamical descriptors (aperiodic activity, cross-frequency coupling, scale-free dynamics, neuronal avalanche statistics, and instantaneous frequency measures). A multi-head attention transformer classifier was trained using strict LOSO validation. Group-level comparisons were performed to identify electrophysiological differences associated with disease and medication state. Standard feature sets achieved strongest performance in discriminating medication states (PDoff vs PDon), whereas Dynamical performed competitively in contrasts between PD patients and healthy controls. Random feature ablation analyses indicated that Dynamical descriptors provide complementary information distributed across features while correlation analysis revealed low redundancy within both feature sets. Group-level comparisons revealed medication-sensitive reductions in delta power and voltage variance, modulation of neuronal avalanche statistics, persistent increases in theta phase synchronization in PD patients, and disease-related alterations in cross-frequency interactions. Traditional spectral and synchronization features primarily reflect medication-related neural modulation, whereas dynamical descriptors reveal broader alterations in cortical network organization associated with disease but also with medication. These findings support multivariate EEG representations as a promising framework for developing non-invasive biomarkers of PD.

arXiv:2510.16082v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Interpreting gene clusters from RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) remains challenging, especially in antimicrobial resistance studies where mechanistic insight is important for hypothesis generation. Existing pathway enrichment methods can summarize co-expressed modules, but they often provide limited cluster-specific explanations and weak connections to supporting literature. We present BIOGEN, an evidence-grounded multi-agent framework for post hoc interpretation of RNA-seq transcriptional modules. BIOGEN combines biomedical retrieval, structured reasoning, and multi-critic verification to generate traceable cluster-level explanations with explicit evidence and confidence labels. On a primary Salmonella enterica dataset, BIOGEN achieved strong biological grounding, including BERTScore 0.689, Semantic Alignment Score 0.715, KEGG Functional Similarity 0.342, and a hallucination rate of 0.000, compared with 0.100 for an LLM-only baseline. Across four additional bacterial RNA-seq datasets, BIOGEN also maintained zero hallucination under the same fixed pipeline. In comparisons with representative open-source agentic AI baselines, BIOGEN was the only framework that consistently preserved zero hallucination across all five datasets. These findings suggest that retrieval alone is not enough for reliable biological interpretation, and that evidence-grounded orchestration is important for transparent and source-traceable transcriptomic reasoning.
