BioAgents: Bridging the gap in bioinformatics analysis with multi-agent systems
Open accessAbstract
Developing end-to-end bioinformatics workflows is challenging, demanding deep expertise in both genomics and computational techniques. While large language models (LLMs) provide some assistance, they often lack the nuanced guidance required for complex bioinformatics tasks, and are resource-intensive. We thus propose a multi-agent system built on small language models, fine-tuned on bioinformatics data, and enhanced with retrieval augmented generation (RAG). Our system, BioAgents, enables local operation and personalization using proprietary data. We observe performance comparable to human experts on conceptual genomics tasks, and discuss future work to enhance code generation capabilities.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
