DuaDeep-SeqAffinity is a sequence-only deep learning framework that predicts antibody–antigen binding affinity directly from primary amino acid sequences, eliminating the need for resolved 3D structures. The model processes the antigen and the antibody heavy and light chains as three independent streams, each embedded with a frozen ESM‑2 protein language model and passed through parallel Transformer and CNN branches before late fusion. On a sequence‑disjoint split of the AbRank benchmark, it achieves a Pearson correlation of 0.683, an R² of 0.460, and a pairwise ranking AUC of 0.895, outperforming single‑branch ablations and showing attention to CDR loops and epitope residues.

arXiv:2603. 13431v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Computational antibody design has seen rapid methodological progress, with dozens of deep generative methods proposed in the past three years, yet the field lacks a standardized benchmark for fair comparison and model development.
