Publication number: 20230307085Abstract: Disclosed herein is method and a system for predicting mutations in Ribonucleic acid (RNA) strains. In an embodiment, a similarity between a new viral RNA strain and reference RNA strains is determined. Further, a strain score for the new viral RNA strain is calculated based on the similarity between the new viral RNA strain and the reference RNA strains. Subsequently, mutation sites for the new viral RNA strain are identified by generating spatial nearness data corresponding to the reference RNA strains based on comparison between the strain score of the new viral RNA strain and the reference RNA strains. Finally, mutations of the new viral RNA strain are predicted by performing a generative modelling of a sequence of the new viral RNA strain with reference to the mutation sites of the new viral RNA strain.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2022Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Manoj MADHUSUDHANAN, Sreekumar CHOYARMADATHIL, Mayank PRAKASH, Rohan MADHUSUDHANAN
