Three-dimensional genome folding plays roles in gene regulation and disease. In this review, we compare and contrast recent deep learning models for predicting genome contact maps. We survey preprocessing, architecture, training, evaluation, and interpretation methods, highlighting the capabilities and limitations of different models. In each area, we highlight challenges, opportunities, and potential future directions for genome-folding models.
