ESM2-8M + LoRA — CAFA6 Biological Process GO Term Predictor

A LoRA-fine-tuned ESM2 model for multi-label Gene Ontology (GO) term prediction on the Biological Process Ontology (BPO), trained on the CAFA6 competition dataset. Given a raw protein amino-acid sequence, the model outputs confidence scores for 5,333 BPO GO terms.

Model Details

Model Description

This model adapts ESM2-8M (facebook/esm2_t6_8M_UR50D) with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) for protein function prediction. The encoder is kept frozen except for the injected LoRA matrices; a two-layer MLP classification head maps mean-pooled residue embeddings to per-GO-term sigmoid scores.

• Developed by: Afzal Hossan
• Model type: Protein sequence encoder + multi-label classifier
• Language(s): Protein sequences (amino-acid alphabet)
• License: MIT
• Finetuned from: facebook/esm2_t6_8M_UR50D
• Ontology covered: Biological Process (BPO) — 5,333 GO terms

Uses

Direct Use

Load the model and run inference on any protein sequence to obtain BPO GO term confidence scores:

model = ESM2Classifier.from_pretrained("AfzalHosaan-2005021/cafa6-esm2-lora-bpo")
model.eval()
