Abstract: Pathogens invade and infect humans. Understanding the infection mechanism is essential for determining targets for new therapeutics. Existing methods provide too many false positive results. A method and system for predicting protein-protein interaction between a host and a pathogen has been provided. The disclosure provides a pipeline for predicting HPIs, which is a combination of biological knowledge-based filters, domain-based filter and sequence-based predictions. Biologically feasible interactions are only possible when both the proteins share common localization and overlapping expression profiles. This observation was used as the first filter to remove biologically irrelevant HPIs. Proteins interact with each other through domains. Both interacting and non-interacting protein pairs provide valuable information about the probability of protein-protein interactions and hence both were used to derive statistical inferences to remove improbable HPIs.

Abstract: Decentralized machine learning to build models is performed at nodes where local training datasets are generated. A blockchain platform may be used to coordinate decentralized machine learning (ML) over a series of iterations. For each iteration, a distributed ledger may be used to coordinate the nodes communicating via a blockchain network. A node can include self-healing features to recover from a fault condition within the blockchain network in manner that does not negatively impact the overall learning ability of the decentralized ML system. During self-healing, the node can determine that a local ML state is not consistent with the global ML state and trigger a corrective action to recover the local ML state. Thereafter, the node can generate a blockchain transaction indicating that it is in-sync with the most recent iteration of training, and informing other nodes to reintegrate the node into ML.
