AART enables fast and accurate cross-platform proteomic translation

Plasma proteomic profiling has been widely used for biomarker discovery, disease prediction and diagnosis, and patient stratification. However, technical differences across assay platforms often result in low-to-moderate agreement, limiting study reproducibility, data integration, and model transferability. Here we present AART, a cross-platform proteomic translation framework that integrates matched-protein ridge regression with proteome-wide residual learning. We benchmarked AART spanning three independent cohorts profiled using three major platforms, including Olink, SomaScan, and mass spectrometry. Across all six translation directions, AART achieved the best performance compared with baseline methods for both overlapping and non-overlapping protein translations, with a relative improvement of 92.0% on average over direct mapping and by up to 31.6% over cpiVAE, the strongest baseline. Proteins that were accurately translated and improved by AART were enriched for extracellular, vesicle-associated, and tissue-restricted plasma biology. In downstream applications, AART improved the reproducibility of proteomic association analyses relative to direct cross-platform comparison by 75.5% for type 2 diabetes and 370.6% for Alzheimer's disease. AART-enabled cohort integration enhanced diagnostic accuracy for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis by 92.6% compared with non-integration analysis. AART was overall one to three orders of magnitude faster than cpiVAE, facilitating biobank-scale applications. Together, these results establish AART as a fast, accurate, and scalable framework for cross-platform proteomic translation, enabling more reproducible, transferable, and integrated proteomic research.
