Jiri Sedlar

I'm a research scientist at the Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics (CIIRC), Czech Technical University in Prague, in the IMPACT group led by Josef Sivic.

I did my PhD at Charles University / Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague, where I was advised by Jan Flusser, followed by postdoc stays at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia, and Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, USA.

ICLR 2024: Scientists from CIIRC CTU empower the computational design of biotherapeutics

Research

I'm interested in machine learning, protein engineering, robotics, computer vision, and image processing.

CoVAMPnet: Comparative Markov State Analysis for Studying Effects of Drug Candidates on Disordered Biomolecules
Sergio Marques, Petr Kouba, Anthony Legrand, Jiri Sedlar, Lucas Disson, Joan Planas-Iglesias, Zainab Sanusi, Antonin Kunka, Jiri Damborsky, Tomas Pajdla, Zbynek Prokop, Stanislav Mazurenko, Josef Sivic, David Bednar
JACS Au, 2024
PDF / project page / code
IF: 8.0

The introduced CoVAMPnet method allows interpretation and comparison of Markov state models of molecular dynamics, as demonstrated on a case study comparing the dynamics of three different systems of Aβ42 peptide.

Learning to design protein-protein interactions with enhanced generalization
Anton Bushuiev, Roman Bushuiev, Petr Kouba, Anatolii Filkin, Marketa Gabrielova, Michal Gabriel, Jiri Sedlar, Tomas Pluskal, Jiri Damborsky, Stanislav Mazurenko, Josef Sivic
International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), 2024
PDF / code / dataset / webserver

Introducing a large dataset of protein-protein interfaces and a model for predicting the change in binding affinity of two protein structures upon mutation (ddG prediction).

Revealing data leakage in protein interaction benchmarks
Anton Bushuiev, Roman Bushuiev, Jiri Sedlar, Tomas Pluskal, Jiri Damborsky, Stanislav Mazurenko, Josef Sivic
Generative and Experimental Perspectives in Biomolecular Design (GEM) workshop at ICLR, 2024
PDF

We demonstrate that further development of machine learning methods may be hindered by the quality of existing train-test splits. To overcome the data leakage, we recommend constructing data splits based on 3D structural similarity of protein-protein interfaces and suggest corresponding algorithms.
