Predicting Influenza Antigenicity by Matrix Completion With Antigen and Antiserum Similarity

Abstract excerpt

The rapid mutation of influenza viruses especially on the two surface proteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) has made them capable to escape from population immunity, which has become a key challenge for influenza vaccine design. Thus, it is crucial to predict influenza antigenic evolution and identify new antigenic variants in a timely manner. However, traditional experimental methods like...
