GENOA / TARGET REASONINGIs the intervention correct at network level?
GENOA treats the drug as a perturbation of a gene-regulatory network rather than an isolated drug–target pair. The published CLR basis evaluates context-specific mutual-information significance.
zi=max[0,(Iij−μi)/σi]
sij=√(zi2+zj2)CLR standardises the mutual information Iij of a gene pair against each gene's background distribution; the two positive z-scores are then combined to identify unusually strong regulatory relationships.

MEMBRANE PHYSICAL STATE / TARGET CLASSWhat if the therapeutic variable is not a protein pocket?
The founders' membrane-state work establishes a second intervention logic. Lipid composition and supramolecular organisation regulate membrane protein function, stress sensing and signalling. ADAPT can therefore preserve a membrane-driven hypothesis as a first-class biological state, allowing candidate selection to ask whether a molecule should bind a protein, remodel a membrane, or alter the coupling between the two.
MPS → {packing, hydration, lateral pressure, domain state, non-lamellar propensity}
intervention ≠ protein binding onlyThe membrane physical state is treated as a coupled set of physical descriptors rather than as passive background. This expands the intervention space from protein binding alone to membrane remodelling and membrane–protein coupling.

TRANSMEMBRANE SENSING / MEMBRANE-ACTIVE SPACECan sequence space report the physical state a membrane has adapted to?
Transmembrane proteomes can be treated as bioinformatic sensors of membrane physical state. The published alignment-free k-mer strategy compares transmembrane sequences, whole proteomes and antimicrobial-peptide sets; the resulting distances provide a route to reason about membrane adaptation, selectivity and toxicity without reducing the problem to a single receptor.
dk-mer(TMP, AMP) → membrane-state / selectivity descriptorAn alignment-free k-mer distance compares transmembrane-protein sequence space with membrane-active peptides. The distance can encode adaptation to membrane physical state and can be developed as a selectivity or toxicity descriptor.

DEEPSAGE + VIZIT / EVIDENCEWhat is supported, contradicted or still unknown?
Graph-linked literature is converted into traceable evidence rather than a free-text answer. Majority and minority evidence remain distinguishable; graph relations retain source provenance.
J(A,B)=|A∩B| / |A∪B|Jaccard similarity measures the overlap between two evidence sets relative to their union. In an evidence graph it provides a simple, interpretable way to quantify shared context between biomedical entities.
SCIENTIFIC REFERENCES: [A6], [A2]. Platform-specific DeepSage/Vizit implementation is disclosed separately.
MATISSE / DYNAMIC POCKETSAre two binding sites still similar when water and motion are allowed to speak?
MATISSE is solvent-centric. Water samples the binding cavity during short MD; retained oxygen positions define local spheres and a dynamic volumetric pocket descriptor.
ri=mina∈surface ||oi−a||2
p=(V,σV,Vi,σVi,Ve), d=||p−p′||2Each retained water oxygen defines a local sphere whose radius is its minimum distance from the pocket surface. Volumetric statistics are assembled into a descriptor vector p, and pocket similarity is evaluated as a distance between those vectors.

SIMILIS / MOLECULAR DISTANCECan similarity remain atomistic without scaffold alignment?
SIMILIS maps 3D coordinates into a spherical reference representation while retaining atom-level charge, mass and reactivity weights. The comparison is designed to avoid dependence on a predefined scaffold alignment.
φ=atan2(y,x) ψ=acos(z/r)Cartesian atomic coordinates are converted into spherical angles before topology and physicochemical weights are added. This removes dependence on a chosen molecular orientation while preserving atom-level information.

BATTLESHIP / HIERARCHICAL SCREENINGWhy dock millions of molecules if the library has structure?
Libraries are partitioned into structurally coherent regions. Representatives are physically docked; a learned surrogate propagates the expensive calculation to the remaining chemical space, with cluster diagnostics retained.
rk=arg minx∈Ck Σy∈Ckd(x,y)
ŷ=fRF(φ2D,φ3D)The first expression selects a representative medoid for cluster Ck. Docking is performed on representatives; a Random Forest surrogate then predicts scores for undocked compounds from 2D/3D descriptors.
SCIENTIFIC REFERENCES: [A4], [A9].
XAI + ADMET / TRUST BOUNDARYWhen is a prediction allowed to influence selection?
Endpoint predictions are retained with applicability domain, calibration state and interpretability. Out-of-domain predictions and missing endpoints remain uncertainty; they are not silently converted into negative evidence.

PARETO / MULTI-OBJECTIVE SELECTIONWhich candidates remain defensible when objectives conflict?
Activity, selectivity, ADMET, synthesizability, novelty and cost are not collapsed into an undocumented scalar. Candidate selection is explicitly vector-valued.
f(x)=[fact,fsel,fADMET,fsyn,fnov,fcost]
x≺y ⇔ ∀k fk(x)≤fk(y) ∧ ∃k fk(x)<fk(y)Each molecule is evaluated as a vector of competing objectives. A candidate dominates another only when it is no worse on every objective and strictly better on at least one, exposing trade-offs instead of hiding them in a single score.

PROTECTED MODULES / TECHNICAL DISCLOSUREThe public page is intentionally incomplete
Additional specialised modules, internal objective scaling, production model selection, thresholds, graph schemas, versioned datasets and programme-specific acquisition functions are discussed under technical disclosure. The boundary is deliberate: the scientific object is public; the implementation advantage is not.
