+ # HuggingLigand Dataset
12
+
13
+ ## Overview
14
+
15
+ **HuggingLigand** is a deep learning pipeline developed to predict the binding affinity between proteins and ligands. This prediction task is essential in fields such as **drug discovery**, **biophysics**, and **computational biology**, where determining how strongly a small molecule ligand binds to a protein target is a key step in understanding molecular interactions and prioritizing drug candidates.
16
+
17
+ The dataset provides precomputed embeddings for proteins and ligands, enabling efficient training and testing of machine learning models for binding affinity prediction.
18
+
19
+ ## Embedding Models Used
20
+
21
+ - **ProtT5**: A transformer-based protein language model pretrained on millions of protein sequences.
22
+ - **ChemBERTa**: A transformer-based molecular language model trained on SMILES representations of chemical compounds.
23
+
24
+ Both models generate high-dimensional embeddings from raw sequence and molecular data. These embeddings are concatenated and used as input to a customizable regression model, which predicts continuous binding affinity values (e.g., **Kd**, **Ki**, or **IC50**).
25
+
26
+ ## Applications
27
+
28
+ - Structure-free binding affinity prediction
29
+ - Virtual screening and hit prioritization in drug discovery
30
+ - Data-driven biophysical modeling
31
+ - Benchmarking molecular embedding models
32
+
33
+ ## Dataset Structure
34
+
35
+ The dataset contains:
36
+ - Protein embeddings generated by **ProtT5**
37
+ - Ligand embeddings generated by **ChemBERTa**
38
+ - Binding affinity labels (e.g., Kd, Ki, IC50)
