ABSTRACT:
Adaptive threading models for predicting an interaction between two or more molecules such as proteins are provided. The adaptive threading models have one or more learnable parameters that can be learned from all or some of the available data. The available data can include data relating to known interactions between the two or more molecules, the composition of the molecules and the geometry of the molecular complex.
