• Abstract: As antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains are rapidly spreading worldwide, infections caused by these strains are emerging as a global crisis causing the death of millions of people every year. Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs) are one of the candidates to tackle this problem because of their potential diversity, and ability to favorably modulate the host immune response. However, large-scale screening of new AMP candidates is expensive, time-consuming, and now affordable in developing countries, which need the treatments the most. In this work, we propose a novel active machine learning-based framework that statistically minimizes the number of wet-lab experiments needed to design new AMPs, while ensuring a high diversity and novelty of generated AMPs sequences, in multi-rounds of wet-lab AMP screening settings. Combining recurrent neural network models and a graph-based filter (GraphCC), our proposed approach delivers novel and diverse candidates and demonstrates better performances according to our defined metrics.

  This paper introduces a paradigm shift by considering multiple attributes in Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) design. By synergizing reinforcement learning and a descent algorithm rooted in the hypervolume of AMP concept, HMAMP effectively expands exploration space and mitigates the issue of pattern collapse. A detailed analysis of the helical structures and molecular dynamics simulations for ten potential candidate AMPs validates the superiority of HMAMP in the realm of multi-objective AMP design.
