Researchers have developed a novel neural stochastic (NS) model designed to forecast the collective diffusion of membrane proteins. This model integrates a transformer-based representation of protein configurations with recurrent networks operating at multiple temporal scales and a stochastic latent process that incorporates learned memory. It generates correlated protein displacements while accounting for system geometry and periodic boundary conditions. The NS model was evaluated on two membrane systems, successfully reproducing anomalous diffusion exponents and generating extended trajectories that capture distinct diffusion characteristics of different protein populations.
