Classification and specific primer design for accurate detection of SARS-CoV-2 using deep learning

Abstract In this paper, deep learning is coupled with explainable artificial intelligence techniques for the discovery of representative genomic sequences in SARS-CoV-2. A convolutional neural network classifier is first trained on 553 sequences from the National Genomics Data Center repository, sep...
