We report the performance of the protein complex prediction approaches of our group and their results in CAPRI Rounds 47-55, excluding the joint CASP Rounds 50 and 54, as well as the special COVID-19 Round 51. Our approaches integrated classical pipelines developed in our group as well as more recently developed deep learning pipelines. In the cases of human group prediction, we surveyed the literature to find information to integrate into the modeling, such as assayed interface residues. In addition to any literature information, generated complex models were selected by a rank aggregation of statistical scoring functions, by generative model confidence, or by expert inspection. In these CAPRI rounds, our human group successfully modeled eight interfaces and achieved the top quality level among the submissions for all of them, including two where no other group did. We note that components of our modeling pipelines have become increasingly unified within deep learning approaches. Finally, we discuss several case studies that illustrate successful and unsuccessful modeling using our approaches.
