    • According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a computer-implemented method of predicting a binding affinity value of a query binder molecule to a query target molecule, the query binder molecule having a first amino acid sequence and the query target molecule having a second amino acid sequence, the method comprising: encoding the first and second amino acid sequences together as a plurality of data elements to generate an encoded pair of amino acids, each data element of the encoded pair representing which amino acids from the first and second amino acid sequences are paired at a respective contact point between the first amino acid sequence and the second amino acid sequence to form a contact point pair, wherein a contact point pair is a pairing of amino acids from a binder molecule and a target molecule which are proximal to one another to influence binding; and, applying a machine learning or statistical model to the encoded pair of amino acids to predict a binding affinity value, wherein the machine learning model or statistical model is trained by: accessing, with at least one processor, a reference data store of reference binder-target pairs comprising respective paired reference binder sequences and reference target sequences, each reference binder-target pair having an associated measured binding value; and, encoding each reference binder-target pair as a plurality of data elements, each data element of the encoded reference binder-target pair representing which amino acids from the respective paired reference binder sequences and reference target sequences are paired at a respective contact point to form a contact point pair, such that the predicted binding affinity value is representative of a contribution to binding of each contact point pair of the query binder molecule and the query target molecule.
