Abstract
Peptides are attractive alternatives for the development of new therapeutic strategies due to their versatility and low complexity of synthesis. Increasing interest in these molecules has led to the creation of large collections of experimentally characterized therapeutic peptides, which greatly contributes to development of data-driven computational approaches. Here we propose CSM-peptides, a novel machine learning method for rapid identification of eight different types of therapeutic peptides: anti-angiogenic, anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, cell-penetrating, quorum sensing, and surface binding. Our method has shown to outperform existing approaches, achieving an AUC of up to 0.92 on independent blind tests, and consistent performance on cross-validation. We anticipate CSM-peptides to be of great value in helping screening large libraries to identify novel peptides with therapeutic potential and have made it freely available as a user-friendly web server and Application Programming Interface at https://biosig.lab.uq.edu.au/csm_peptides.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
