Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for clustering of similar peptides to detect candidates for target binding. In some embodiments, a method provided herein includes receiving sequencing information and quantification information of a plurality of peptides after target-binding selection in a library. The sequencing information includes amino acid sequences of the plurality of peptides, and the quantification information includes a count of copies of each amino acid sequence in the plurality of peptides. The method further includes computing similarity scores for pairs of the plurality of peptides using the sequencing information. The method further includes grouping the plurality of peptides into clusters based on the similarity scores. The method further includes screening the clusters based on quantification information of peptides in each cluster to obtain candidates for target binding over a pre-set threshold.
