Multifaceted analysis of training and testing convolutional neural networks for protein secondary structure prediction.

ABSTRACT: Protein secondary structure prediction remains a vital topic with broad applications. Due to lack of a widely accepted standard in secondary structure predictor evaluation, a fair comparison of predictors is challenging. A detailed examination of factors that contribute to higher accuracy is also lacking. In this paper, we present: (1) new test sets, Test2018, Test2019, and Test2018-2019, consisting of proteins from structures released in 2018 and 2019 with less than 25% identity to any protein published before 2018; (2) a 4-layer convolutional neural network, SecNet, with an input window of ±14 amino acids which was trained on proteins ≤25% identical to proteins in Test2018 and the commonly used CB513 test set; (3) an additional test set that shares no homologous domains with the training
