Combining mutation and recombination statistics to infer clonal families in antibody repertoires
Natanael Spisak, Gabriel Athènes, Thomas Dupic +2
B-cell repertoires are characterized by a diverse set of receptors of distinct specificities generated through two processes of somatic diversification: V(D)J recombination and som…
Learning the statistics and landscape of somatic mutation-induced insertions and deletions in antibodies
Cosimo Lupo, Natanael Spisak, Aleksandra M. Walczak +1
Affinity maturation is crucial for improving the binding affinity of antibodies to antigens. This process is mainly driven by point substitutions caused by somatic hypermutations o…
MINIMALIST: Mutual INformatIon Maximization for Amortized Likelihood Inference from Sampled Trajectories
Giulio Isacchini, Natanael Spisak, Armita Nourmohammad +2
Simulation-based inference enables learning the parameters of a model even when its likelihood cannot be computed in practice. One class of methods uses data simulated with differe…
Learning the heterogeneous hypermutation landscape of immunoglobulins from high-throughput repertoire data
Natanael Spisak, Aleksandra M. Walczak, Thierry Mora
Somatic hypermutations of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes occuring during affinity maturation drive B-cell receptors' ability to evolve strong binding to their antigenic targets. The lan…
