By using a sparse autoencoder, Prof Bonnie Berger and her @lab_berger students are uncovering how protein language models make predictions. "Identifying features that protein language models track has the potential to reveal novel biological insights from these representations."

[MIT Science @ScienceMIT]

A new approach from researchers in @MITMath can reveal the features AI models use to predict proteins that might make good drug or vaccine targets https://t.co/KrmFFsOHZI
