HIV Mutation Classifier HIV Mutation Classifier Hannah Bier’s Project Proposal

HIV Protease and Drug Resistance

Classification Each strain of HIV protease will be stored as a chain of amino acids Each strain of HIV protease will be stored as a chain of amino acids They will be grouped according to mutations that correspond with antiviral resistance They will be grouped according to mutations that correspond with antiviral resistance To do this, I will implement a neural network To do this, I will implement a neural network

Overview of Neural Networks

Polynomial vs. Linear Separability

Training and Testing I will train and test on a dataset of HIV protease labeled with drug resistance data I will train and test on a dataset of HIV protease labeled with drug resistance data The data will be separated into a training set and a testing set The data will be separated into a training set and a testing set Once trained, the neural network should classify the elements of the testing set in accordance with their labels. Once trained, the neural network should classify the elements of the testing set in accordance with their labels.
