Abstract
We present three deep learning sequence prediction models for hemolysis, solubility, and resistance to non-specific interactions of peptides that achieve comparable results to the state-of-the art models. These predictive models share a common architecture of bidirectional recurrent neural networks (LSTM). These models are implemented in JavaScript so that they can be run on a static website without use of a dedicated server. This removes the cost, and long-term management of a server, while still enabling open and free access to the models. This “serverless” prediction model is a demonstration of edge computing bioinformatics and removes the dependence on cloud providers or self-hosting of resource-rich academic institutions. This is feasible because of the continued track of Moore’s law and ubiquitous hardware acceleration of deep learning computations on new phones and desktops.
