Modeling aspects of the language of life through transfer-learning protein sequences

Abstract Background Predicting protein function and structure from sequence is one important challenge for computational biology. For 26 years, most state-of-the-art approaches combined machine learning and evolutionary information. However, for some applications retrieving related proteins is becom...
