Problems solved by technology

[0010] Furthermore, previous approaches have only used cis-acting mutations to generate candidate neoantigens and have largely neglected to consider other sources of neo-ORFs, including mutations in splicing factors that occur in multiple tumor types and lead to aberrant splicing of many genes 13 , and mutations that create or remove protease cleavage sites
[0011] Finally, standard approaches to tumor genome and transcriptome profiling may miss somatic mutations that generate candidate neoantigens due to suboptimal conditions in library construction, exome and transcriptome capture, sequencing, or data analysis
Likewise, standard tumor profiling methods may inadvertently promote sequence artifacts or germline polymorphisms as neoantigens, leading to inefficient use of vaccines or risk of autoimmunity, respectively
[0012] In addition to the challenges of current neoantigen prediction methods, there are certain challenges with the available vector systems for neoantigen delivery in humans, many of which are of human origin

[0657] X.C.1. Example 1: Maximum value of independent allele model

[0658] In one embodiment, the training module 316 makes the peptide p associated with a set of multiple alleles H k Estimated probability of presentation u k With the presentation probability u of each MHC allele h in the set H determined based on cells expressing a single allele k h∈H The change in is modeled as described above in conjunction with equations (2)-(11). Specifically, the possibility of presentation u k Can be u k h ∈ H Any function. In one embodiment, as shown in equation (12), the function is the maximum function, and the probability u k It can be determined as the maximum presentation probability of each MHC allele h in the set H.

[0673] X.C.3. Example 2.2: A functional model using the sum of allelic non-interacting variables In one embodiment, the training module 316 incorporates the allelic non-interacting variables and makes the peptide p by the following formula k Estimated probability of presentation u k Modeling:

[0674]

[0675] Where w k Indicates the encoded related peptide p k The allelic non-interacting variable. Specifically, the parameter set θ of each MHC allele h h And related allelic non-interacting variable parameter set θ w The value of can be determined by h And θ w The loss function of i is minimized to determine each instance of the subset S of the training data 170 generated by cells expressing a single MHC allele and / or cells expressing multiple MHC alleles. Correlation function g w It can be the correlation function g introduced in section X.B.3 above w In any form.

[0676] Therefore, according to equation (14), the peptide sequence p k The probability of presentation that will be p...

[0687] X.C.4. Example 3.1: Model using implicit independent allele likelihood

[0688] In another embodiment, the training module 316 makes the peptide p k Estimated probability of presentation u k Modeling:

[0689]

[0690] Where element a h k For peptide sequence p k The associated multiple MHC alleles h∈H are 1, Is the implicit independent allele presentation possibility of MHC allele h, vector v is element v h Corresponds to The vector of s(·) is a function of the mapping element v, and r(·) is a clipping function, which reduces the input value to a given range. As described in more detail below, s(·) may be a summation function or a second-order function, but it should be understood that in other embodiments, s(·) may be any function, such as a maximum function. The value of the parameter set θ related to the possibility of implicit independent alleles can be determined by minimizing the loss function related to θ, where i is determined by cells expressing a single MHC alle...
