Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the fields of biomedicine and deep learning technology, and specifically relates to a method, device, equipment and storage medium for predicting protein-molecule characterization interactions. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the rapid development of deep learning technology has brought tremendous progress to research in protein characterization, molecular characterization, and related biomedical fields. However, as the scale of models increases, especially when using complex deep neural networks (DNNs) for tasks such as protein structure prediction or molecular graph embedding, training time and computational resource consumption have become significant bottlenecks. In these tasks, models typically need to handle millions or even billions of parameters and must be trained on massive datasets. This not only requires high-performance hardware resources but also increases the time cost of training and inference. Simultaneously, excessive computational and time consumption during training, especially when dealing with large-scale protein and molecular data, limits the practical application and widespread adoption of these models. Furthermore, most current protein-drug interaction (PDI) prediction methods can only handle single-modality data (such as protein sequences or molecular structures). In practical applications, proteins and molecules are intertwined, and the interaction relationships and representation effectiveness between different modalities have not been fully explored, resulting in limited predictive capabilities of the models. Meanwhile, existing protein and molecular characterization models fail to take into account the complex interactions between proteins and molecules in complex tasks such as cross-modal learning and multi-task learning, and cannot fully capture key information in protein sequences and molecular structures, resulting in insufficient expressive power of feature extraction.

Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0040] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0041] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a protein-molecular characterization interaction prediction method according to an embodiment of this application. The protein-molecular characterization interaction prediction method according to an embodiment of this application includes the following steps:

[0042] S100: Acquire protein sequence data and molecular structure data respectively;

[0043] In this step, the protein sequence data is in text format, the molecular structure data is SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) sites or chemical structure data, and the molecular structure data is a molecular graph representation or SMI LES sequence, including atoms and bonds.

[0044] S110: After preprocessing the protein sequence data and molecular structure data, feature extraction is performed on the protein sequence data and molecular structure data respectively to obtain high-dimensional protein features and low-dimensional molecular structure features.

[0045] In this step, the preprocessing of protein sequence data and molecular structure data specifically includes:

[0046] S111: Protein sequence data is encoded using encoding methods such as letter-based sequence encoding or amino acid-based attribute encoding, and global and local features of the protein sequence data are extracted using a pre-trained SaProt model. A fixed-dimensional protein feature vector is output through the penultimate layer of the SaProt model. In this embodiment, by converting the protein sequence data into a high-dimensional protein feature vector, its biochemical properties and structural features can be better captured.

[0047] S112: Based on molecular graph embedding technology, atoms and bonds in molecular structure data are represented as feature vectors. Topological features and functional group information in molecular structure data are extracted using methods such as graph convolutional neural networks (GCN). After multi-layer graph attention processing, low-dimensional molecular structure features are output.

[0048] S120: Employs a Transformer-based protein-molecule cross-fusion module to perform cross-modal feature fusion of protein features and molecular structure features, captures the interaction information between proteins and molecules, and outputs the fused high-dimensional feature representation.

[0049] In this step, after obtaining protein features and molecular structure features, a Transformer-based protein-molecule cross-fusion module is used to perform cross-modal feature fusion and capture the correlation information between the two. Specifically, the protein-molecule cross-fusion module adopts a multi-layer decoder architecture. After projecting protein features to the molecular feature dimension through a linear layer, a self-attention mechanism is used to learn the interaction between protein features and molecular structure features. The Transformer decoder extracts cross-modal interaction features and outputs the fused high-dimensional feature representation.

[0050] It is understood that the embodiments of this application adopt a protein molecular cross-fusion module based on Transformer, which can fully explore the potential interaction relationship between proteins and molecular structures. During the information transmission process, it ensures that protein features and molecular features are effectively fused and enhanced, improves the model's understanding ability, enhances the model's learning ability for cross-modal interactions, and improves the prediction accuracy of PDI tasks.

[0051] S130: Based on the fused high-dimensional feature representation, a teacher-student model architecture and knowledge distillation technology are used for model training and optimization to obtain a well-trained prediction model;

[0052] In this step, to optimize the model training process, this embodiment employs a teacher-student model architecture and knowledge distillation techniques to improve training efficiency and reduce computational resource consumption. The teacher-student model architecture, as a knowledge distillation method, transfers the knowledge of a larger, well-trained "teacher" model to a smaller, simpler "student" model, enabling the student model to achieve performance close to the teacher model with fewer parameters and less computational overhead. Specifically, the teacher model is pre-trained on large-scale data, enabling it to learn more complex feature representations. Through knowledge distillation, the teacher model's logits and other prediction distributions are passed to the student model as targets. The student model can learn the complex patterns acquired by the teacher model during training, thus achieving efficient inference and training on a smaller scale. When dealing with tasks such as protein characterization and molecular characterization, the teacher-student model architecture can effectively reduce the computational complexity of the student model while maintaining high prediction accuracy. It reduces the parameter size and computational complexity of the student model and avoids the need for a complete update of the teacher model during each training session, thereby significantly reducing the number of parameters and computational complexity. It can be trained with less computing resources while maintaining high accuracy.

[0053] Furthermore, during model training, this embodiment employs a standard supervised learning loss function, while also introducing feature-based Triplet Loss and knowledge distillation loss to further enhance the model's learning ability and generalization performance. During training, to improve the model's generalization ability and reduce the risk of overfitting, this embodiment adopts the following optimization strategies: Dropout is introduced during feature extraction and cross-modal feature fusion to prevent overfitting during training; a teacher-student model architecture is used, employing KL divergence as the distillation loss function to ensure the student model effectively learns the knowledge from the teacher model, reducing computational overhead; in the final regression layer, protein features and molecular features are weighted and fused, and soft maxing is used to further optimize the final interactive prediction results.

[0054] It is understood that this invention introduces a strategy combining Triplet Loss and knowledge distillation. Triplet Loss guides the model to optimize the distance relationship between features, leading the model to better focus on representative feature regions during feature learning, thereby enhancing the model's representation ability in complex tasks, improving feature representativeness and robustness, and avoiding overfitting during learning. The combined use of knowledge distillation and Triplet Loss improves the model's understanding and modeling ability of complex interactions. By using a teacher-student model and a cross-modal feature fusion strategy, it can not only effectively learn the representation of a single task, but also share and transfer knowledge across multiple tasks through knowledge distillation and joint training. Multi-task learning enhances the model's generalization ability, sharing features across multiple tasks and optimizing knowledge transfer between tasks. Through pre-training of the teacher model and fine-tuning of the student model, a highly flexible and adaptable framework is provided, enabling rapid adaptation to multiple different tasks, improving the model's adaptability and transferability across different tasks. The modular design ensures the model's flexibility and generalization ability, and it can be extended to other PDI tasks.

[0055] S140: Predict the strength of protein-molecule interactions using a trained prediction model;

[0056] In this step, the prediction model specifically includes the following methods for predicting protein-molecule interaction strength:

[0057] S141: Dimensionality reduction and prediction of high-dimensional feature representations using fully connected layers (FC):

[0058] S142: Splicing protein features with molecular features;

[0059] S143: After processing the spliced ​​features through a two-layer fully connected network, the final protein-molecule characterization interaction prediction result (PD I prediction score) is output.

[0060] Among them, the regression prediction result is a single regression value, which represents the strength of the interaction between proteins and molecules. This prediction result can be used for drug development or interaction analysis, promoting the research and development of new drugs and the understanding of complex biological interactions.

[0061] Based on the above, the protein-molecular representation interaction prediction method of this application, by combining cross-modal feature fusion and a teacher-student model architecture, and by combining protein and molecular representation models with multi-layer Transformer structures for feature extraction, can significantly improve the ability to capture key information in protein and molecular structures. Through cross-modal feature fusion, protein and molecular features are deeply fused, fully capturing the complex interaction relationships between them, overcoming the limitation of traditional methods that can only process single-modal data, and improving the prediction accuracy of PDI tasks. Through knowledge distillation technology, the teacher model guides the student model to learn, enabling the teacher and student models to work collaboratively on features at different levels, achieving a better understanding of complex biological interactions, improving the performance of the student model in protein-molecular interaction tasks, not only improving model performance but also accelerating training and reducing the risk of overfitting. This application embodiment can learn more meaningful features from complex protein-molecular interactions, further improving the accuracy of PDI tasks. While achieving efficient and accurate PDI prediction, it avoids the high computational cost required for large-scale model training in traditional methods, overcoming the limitations of traditional methods in terms of computational resources, efficiency, and data representation, and improving the model's adaptability and transferability in different tasks, thus possessing significant application value.
