The paper introduces a method for estimating the causal effects of T cell receptor (TCR) sequences on patient outcomes using observational TCR sequencing and clinical data. It corrects for unobserved confounders by leveraging the pre-selection TCR repertoire generated through V(D)J recombination as a natural experiment, and employs permutation‑invariant neural networks to scale to millions of sequences. The approach is validated on semisynthetic data and applied to COVID‑19 severity, identifying TCRs that are observed in patients, bind SARS‑CoV‑2 antigens in vitro, and positively influence clinical outcomes.

The paper introduces Explainability from Training (EFT), a model‑agnostic method that tracks how deep learning models learn and organize evidence during training. EFT is applied to four leading T cell receptor‑epitope prediction models, revealing distinct learning trajectories for CNNs and transformers, conflicts between TCR alpha and beta chain evidence, and differences in feature preferences when using real versus predicted structural data. The authors also present a new benchmark, TCR‑XAI2, comprising 388 experimentally resolved TCR‑epitope structures and several predicted models to evaluate these insights.
