A Triple-Modal Contrastive Learning Framework with Sequence, Graph, and 3D Features for Drug-Target Interaction Prediction

arXiv:2605.29926v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate prediction of drug-target interactions (DTI) is critical for drug discovery. Existing methods often rely on single-modal representations (e.g., sequences or graphs) or combine only two modalities, overlooking 3D structural features. To address this challenge, we propose TriMod-DTI, a triple-modal contrastive learning framework that incorporates 1D sequences, 2D graphs, and 3D structures of drugs and proteins, obtaining the universal and complementary feature representations for DTI prediction. We design a Feature Extractor to capture dru
