Paying attention to the SARS-CoV-2 dialect : a deep neural network approach to predicting novel protein mutations by Magdalyn E. Elkin, Xingquan Zhu

“…Because mutations introduce changing context to the underlying sequence, DNMS models three aspects of the protein sequences: semantic changes, grammatical changes, and attention changes, each modeling protein sequence aspects from shifting of semantics, grammar coherence, and amino-acid interactions in latent space. A ranking approach is proposed to combine all three aspects to capture mutations demonstrating evolving traits, in accordance with real-world SARS-CoV-2 spike protein sequence evolution. …”
