Transition paths in Potts-like energy landscapes: general properties and application to protein sequence models

no code implementations6 Apr 2023 Eugenio Mauri, Simona Cocco, Rémi Monasson

We study transition paths in energy landscapes over multi-categorical Potts configurations using the mean-field approach introduced by Mauri et al., {\em Phys Rev Lett 130, 158402 (2023)}.

Disentangling representations in Restricted Boltzmann Machines without adversaries

no code implementations23 Jun 2022 Jorge Fernandez-de-Cossio-Diaz, Simona Cocco, Remi Monasson

A goal of unsupervised machine learning is to build representations of complex high-dimensional data, with simple relations to their properties.

Mutational paths with sequence-based models of proteins: from sampling to mean-field characterisation

no code implementations22 Apr 2022 Eugenio Mauri, Simona Cocco, Rémi Monasson

Identifying and characterizing mutational paths is an important issue in evolutionary biology and in bioengineering.

Barriers and Dynamical Paths in Alternating Gibbs Sampling of Restricted Boltzmann Machines

1 code implementation13 Jul 2021 Clément Roussel, Simona Cocco, Rémi Monasson

Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBM) are bi-layer neural networks used for the unsupervised learning of model distributions from data.

Survival probability and size of lineages in antibody affinity maturation

no code implementations22 Oct 2020 Marco Molari, Rémi Monasson, Simona Cocco

We then extend our results to the full population, both in the absence and presence of competition for T-cell help, and quantify the population survival probability as a function of Ag concentration and initial population size.

Inferring epistasis from genomic data with comparable mutation and outcrossing rate

no code implementations30 Jun 2020 Hong-Li Zeng, Eugenio Mauri, Vito Dichio, Simona Cocco, Remi Monasson, Erik Aurell

We consider a population evolving due to mutation, selection and recombination, where selection includes single-locus terms (additive fitness) and two-loci terms (pairwise epistatic fitness).

Learning Compositional Representations of Interacting Systems with Restricted Boltzmann Machines: Comparative Study of Lattice Proteins

no code implementations18 Feb 2019 Jérôme Tubiana, Simona Cocco, Rémi Monasson

A Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) is an unsupervised machine-learning bipartite graphical model that jointly learns a probability distribution over data and extracts their relevant statistical features.

Learning protein constitutive motifs from sequence data

1 code implementation23 Mar 2018 Jérôme Tubiana, Simona Cocco, Rémi Monasson

Statistical analysis of evolutionary-related protein sequences provides insights about their structure, function, and history.

Inverse Statistical Physics of Protein Sequences: A Key Issues Review

1 code implementation3 Mar 2017 Simona Cocco, Christoph Feinauer, Matteo Figliuzzi, Remi Monasson, Martin Weigt

In the course of evolution, proteins undergo important changes in their amino acid sequences, while their three-dimensional folded structure and their biological function remain remarkably conserved.
