PocketX: Preference Alignment for Protein Pockets Design through Group Relative Policy Optimization

Designing protein pockets that target specific ligands is crucial for drug discovery and enzyme engineering. Although deep generative models show promise in proposing high-quality pockets, they are usually trained purely to match the data distribution and therefore overlook key biophysical properties, such as binding affinity, expression, and solubility, that ultimately determine developability an...

Flexible selection of working memory representations to reduce cognitive cost

Across psychology 1–4, economics 5,6, machine learning 7, and neuroscience 8,9, it is well established that choosing a good internal representation can make complex problems easier to solve. Thus, intelligent behavior depends not only on what is stored in working memory, but on the format in which it is stored. Selecting a lower-load format can substantially reduce the mental effort required for a...

Care Phenotypes In Critical Care
