We present a scalable, end-to-end workflow for protein design. By augmenting protein sequences with natural language descriptions of their biochemical properties, we train generative models that can be preferentially aligned with protein fitness landscapes. Through complex experimental-and simulation-based observations, we integrate these measures as preferred parameters for generating new protein variants and demonstrate our workflow on five diverse supercomputers. We achieve >1 ExaFLOPS sustained performance in mixed precision on each supercomputer and a maximum sustained performance of 4.11 Ex-aFLOPS and peak performance of 5.57 ExaFLOPS. We establish the scientific performance of our model on two tasks: (1) across a predetermined benchmark dataset of deep mutational scanning experiments to optimize the fitness-determining mutations in the yeast protein HIS7, and (2) in optimizing the design of the enzyme malate dehydrogenase to achieve lower activation barriers (and therefore increased catalytic rates) using simulation data. Our implementation thus sets high watermarks for multimodal protein design workflows.

Abstract Exploratory analysis of the chemical space is an important task in the field of cheminformatics. For example, in drug discovery research, chemists investigate sets of thousands of chemical compounds in order to identify novel yet structurally similar synthetic compounds to replace natural products. Manually exploring the chemical space inhabited by all possible molecules and chemical compounds is impractical, and therefore presents a challenge. To fill this gap, we present ChemoGraph, a novel visual analytics technique for interactively exploring related chemicals. In ChemoGraph, we formalize a chemical space as a hypergraph and apply novel machine learning models to compute related chemical compounds. It uses a database to find related compounds from a known space and a machine learning model to generate new ones, which helps enlarge the known space. Moreover, ChemoGraph highlights interactive features that support users in viewing, comparing, and organizing computationally identified related chemicals. With a drug discovery usage scenario and initial expert feedback from a case study, we demonstrate the usefulness of ChemoGraph.

Abstract Most real‐world networks are both dynamic and multivariate in nature, meaning that the network is associated with various attributes and both the network structure and attributes evolve over time. Visualizing dynamic multivariate networks is of great significance to the visualization community because of their wide applications across multiple domains. However, it remains challenging because the techniques should focus on representing the network structure, attributes and their evolution concurrently. Many real‐world network analysis tasks require the concurrent usage of the three aspects of the dynamic multivariate networks. In this paper, we analyze current techniques and present a taxonomy to classify the existing visualization techniques based on three aspects: temporal encoding, topology encoding, and attribute encoding. Finally, we survey application areas and evaluation methods; and discuss challenges for future research.
