Researchers have developed a new explainable framework that links transcriptional programs to tissue morphology using vision transformer (ViT) models. This framework combines relevance propagation with concept discovery to provide both local and global insights into how morphological patterns influence gene expression predictions. Applied to colorectal cancer data, the approach accurately predicts clinically relevant signatures and molecular phenotypes, demonstrating spatial heterogeneity across subtypes and stratifying patient outcomes.
