## Summary
|
20 |
|
21 |
+
The HIV-BERT model was trained as a refinement of the ProtBert-BFD model (https://huggingface.co/Rostlab/prot_bert_bfd) for HIV centric tasks. It was refined with whole viral genomes from the Los Alamos HIV Sequence Database (https://www.hiv.lanl.gov/content/sequence/HIV/mainpage.html). This pretraining is important for HIV related tasks as the original BFD database contains few viral proteins making it sub-optimal when used as the basis for transfer learning tasks. This model and other related HIV prediction tasks have been published (link).

## Model Description
|
24 |
|
25 |
+
Like the original ProtBert-BFD model, this model encodes each amino acid as an individual token. This model was trained using Masked Language Modeling: a process in which a random set of tokens are masked with the model trained on their prediction. This model was trained using the damlab/hiv-flt dataset with 256 amino acid chunks and a 15% mask rate.

## Intended Uses & Limitations
|
28 |
|
29 |
+
As a masked language model this tool can be used to predict expected mutations using a masking approach. This could be used to identify highly mutated sequences, sequencing artifacts, or other contexts. As a BERT model, this tool can also be used as the base for transfer learning. This pretrained model could be used as the base when developing HIV-specific classification tasks.

## Training Data
|
36 |
|
37 |
+
The dataset damlab/HIV-FLT was used to refine the original rostlab/Prot-bert-bfd. This dataset contains 1790 full HIV genomes from across the globe. When translated, these genomes contain approximately 3.9 million amino-acid tokens.

## Training Procedure

|
41 |
### Preprocessing
|
42 |
|
43 |
+
As with the rostlab/Prot-bert-bfd model, the rare amino acids U, Z, O, and B were converted to X and spaces were added between each amino acid. All strings were concatenated and chunked into 256 token chunks for training. A random 20% of chunks were held for validation.

|
45 |
### Training
|
46 |
|
47 |
+
Training was performed with the HuggingFace training module using the MaskedLM data loader with a 15% masking rate. The learning rate was set at E-5, 50K warm-up steps, and a cosine_with_restarts learning rate schedule and continued until 3 consecutive epochs did not improve the loss on the held-out dataset.
