• Abstract: Peptide design plays a pivotal role in therapeutic applications, yet existing AI-assisted methods often struggle to generate stable peptides with high affinity due to their inability to accurately simulate the dynamic docking process. To address this challenge, we propose NLFlow, a novel multi-manifold approach based on non-linear flow matching. Specifically, we design a polynomial-based conditional vector field to accelerate the convergence of the peptide's position towards the target pocket, effectively capturing the temporal inconsistencies across position, rotation, torsion, and amino acid type manifolds. This enables the model to better align with the true conformational changes observed in biological docking processes. Additionally, we incorporate interaction-related information, such as polarity, to enhance the understanding of peptide-protein binding. Extensive experiments demonstrate that NLFlow outperforms existing methods in generating peptides with superior stability, affinity, and diversity, offering a fast and efficient solution for peptide design and advancing the peptide-based therapeutic development.
