From cellular activation to drug combinations, the control of biological systems involves multiple stimuli that can elicit complex nonlinear interactions. To elucidate the functions and logic of stimulus interactions, we developed SAIL (Synergistic/Antagonistic Interaction Learner). SAIL uses a machine learning classifier trained to categorize interactions across a complete taxonomy of possible combinatorial effects. The strategy resolves the most informative interactions, and helps infer their functions and regulatory mechanisms. SAIL-predicted interaction mechanisms controlling key immune functions were experimentally validated. SAIL can integrate results from multiple datasets to derive general properties of how cells respond to multiple stimuli. Using public immunological datasets, we assembled a fine-grained landscape of [~]30000 interactions. Analysis of the landscape shows the context-dependent functions of individual modulators, and reveals a probabilistic algebra that links the separate and combined stimulus effects. SAIL is available through a user friendly interface to resolve the effect of stimulus and drug combinations.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
