                    Snippet: We present a novel technique to predict binding affinity trends between two molecules from atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The technique uses a neural network algorithm applied to a series of images encoding the distance between two molecules in time. We demonstrate that our algorithm is capable of separating with high accuracy non-hydrophobic mutations with low binding affinity from those with high binding affinity. Moreover, we show high accuracy in prediction using a small subset of

The technique uses a neural network algorithm applied to a series of images encoding the distance between two molecules in time. We demonstrate that our algorithm is capable of separating with high accuracy non-hydrophobic mutations with low binding affinity from those with high binding affinity. Moreover, we show high accuracy in prediction using a small subset of the simulation, therefore requiring a much shorter simulation time. We apply our algorithm to the binding between several variants of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and the human receptor ACE2.
