Antibodies are a critical part of the immune system, having the function of directly neutralising or tagging undesirable objects (the antigens) for future destruction. Being able to predict which amino acids belong to the paratope, the region on the antibody which binds to the antigen, can facilitate antibody design an…
The paper proposes a method to reliably select design algorithms for machine learning-guided design tasks.
problem Choosing the right design algorithm for machine learning-guided design tasks.
method Combining designs' predicted property values with held-out labeled data to reliably forecast characteristics of the label distributions produced by different design algorithms.
result The method is guaranteed to return design algorithms that yield successful label distributions.
We propose a new low-cost machine-learning-based methodology which assists designers in reducing the gap between the problem and the solution in the design process. Our work applies reinforcement learning (RL) to find the optimal task-oriented design solution through the construction of the design action for each task.…
Efficient deep learning computing requires algorithm and hardware co-design to enable specialization: we usually need to change the algorithm to reduce memory footprint and improve energy efficiency. However, the extra degree of freedom from the algorithm makes the design space much larger: it's not only about designin…
Topology design optimization offers tremendous opportunity in design and manufacturing freedoms by designing and producing a part from the ground-up without a meaningful initial design as required by conventional shape design optimization approaches. Ideally, with adequate problem statements, to formulate and solve the…
Solving the RNA inverse folding problem is a critical prerequisite to RNA design, an emerging field in bioengineering with a broad range of applications from reaction catalysis to cancer therapy. Although significant progress has been made in developing machine-based inverse RNA folding algorithms, current approaches s…

method Proposed adaptive designs with O(logT) Neyman regret under boundedness assumptions and O(T) multigroup Neyman regret in covariate-based settings.

A new method achieves optimal uniformity in designs with minimal flexibility.
problem Achieving optimal uniformity in designs with minimal flexibility.
method Derive a lower bound on the uniformity constant and use a greedy construction to achieve this bound, then extend the scheme for more flexibility.
result A simple greedy construction achieves the optimal uniformity constant.
The design of multiple experiments is commonly undertaken via suboptimal strategies, such as batch (open-loop) design that omits feedback or greedy (myopic) design that does not account for future effects. This paper introduces new strategies for the optimal design of sequential experiments. First, we rigorously formul…
Generative systems have a significant potential to synthesize innovative design alternatives. Still, most of the common systems that have been adopted in design require the designer to explicitly define the specifications of the procedures and in some cases the design space. In contrast, a generative system could poten…
This paper proposes a new approach to construct high quality space-filling sample designs. First, we propose a novel technique to quantify the space-filling property and optimally trade-off uniformity and randomness in sample designs in arbitrary dimensions. Second, we connect the proposed metric (defined in the spatia…
Layout design with complex constraints is a challenging problem to solve due to the non-uniqueness of the solution and the difficulties in incorporating the constraints into the conventional optimization-based methods. In this paper, we propose a design method based on the recently developed machine learning technique,…
