Abstract
An exponential increase in the number of publications that address artificial intelligence (AI) usage in life sciences has been noticed in recent years, while new modeling techniques are constantly being reported. The potential of these methods is vast-from understanding fundamental cellular processes to discovering new drugs and breakthrough therapies. Computational studies of protein-protein interactions, crucial for understanding the operation of biological systems, are no exception in this field. However, despite the rapid development of technology and the progress in developing new approaches, many aspects remain challenging to solve, such as predicting conformational changes in proteins, or more "trivial" issues as high-quality data in huge quantities.Therefore, this chapter focuses on a short introduction to various AI approaches to study protein-protein interactions, followed by a description of the most up-to-date algorithms and programs used for this purpose. Yet, given the considerable pace of development in this hot area of computational science, at the time you read this chapter, the development of the algorithms described, or the emergence of new (and better) ones should come as no surprise.
