Auto-optimized TF-MoDISco is 5-15x faster with byte-identical output

jmschreiber91 · x · 2026-10-14

An auto-optimize-produced PR parallelizes the TF-MoDISco motifs pipeline across processes, rewrites numba kernels in background processes, and reworks clustering, merging and polishing stages. Validated on 4,972 jobs (ISM, DeepLIFT, IG, gradients × 60 models + malformed inputs), it delivers 5-15x speedups and 2-3x memory savings; a 50,000-seqlet benchmark dropped from 1745s to 119.1s with byte-identical output (leidenalg pinned at 0.11.0).
