  • Publication number: 20240120022
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for performing protein design. In one aspect, a method comprises: processing an input characterizing a target protein structure of a target protein using an embedding neural network having a plurality of embedding neural network parameters to generate an embedding of the target protein structure of the target protein; determining a predicted amino acid sequence of the target protein based on the embedding of the target protein structure, comprising: conditioning a generative neural network having a plurality of generative neural network parameters on the embedding of the target protein structure; and generating, by the generative neural network conditioned on the embedding of the target protein structure, a representation of the predicted amino acid sequence of the target protein.

  • Publication number: 20240087686
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for unmasking a masked representation of a protein using a protein reconstruction neural network. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving the masked representation of the protein; and processing the masked representation of the protein using the protein reconstruction neural network to generate a respective predicted embedding corresponding to one or more masked embeddings that are included in the masked representation of the protein, wherein a predicted embedding corresponding to a masked embedding in a representation of the amino acid sequence of the protein defines a prediction for an identity of an amino acid at a corresponding position in the amino acid sequence, wherein a predicted embedding corresponding to a masked embedding in a representation of the structure of the protein defines a prediction for a corresponding structural feature of the protein.

  • Patent number: 11665528
    Abstract: In certain embodiments, a (CBSD) base station for a (CBRS) radio system transmits new information elements in an existing capability exchange message to a spectrum access system (SAS) informing the SAS as to whether the SAS should transmit a channel-change message to the base station either (i) directly (and despite of domain proxy being present in the communication path) or (ii) via a domain proxy. If and when the SAS subsequently receives notification of incumbent activity from an Environmental Sensing Capability system, the SAS transmits either a new channel-change message or includes new information elements in an existing heartbeat message to the base station either (i) directly or (ii) via the domain proxy per the capability exchange message.
