There is an increased need for learning robust representations from metagenome reads since pathogens within a family can have highly similar genome structures (some more than 90%) and hence enable the segmentation and identification of novel pathogen sequences with limited labeled data.

However, there are significant challenges in developing such an approach, the chief among which is to learn self-supervised representations that can help detect novel pathogen signatures with very low amounts of labeled data.
