Applying deep reinforcement learning to robot control poses challenges. The authors review methods for transferring deep reinforcement learning policies learned in simulation to the real world.
Both proteins and natural language are essentially based on a sequential code, but feature complex interactions at multiple scales, which can be useful when transferring machine learning models from one domain to another. In this Review, Ferruz and Höcker summarize recent advances in language models, such as transformers, and their application to protein design.
GPUs, which are highly parallel computer processing units, were originally designed for graphics applications, but they have played an important role in accelerating the development of deep learning methods. In this Review, Pandey and colleagues summarize how GPUs have advanced machine learning in the field of drug discovery.
