An apparatus for training a tunable data structure to predict internal ribosome entry site (IRES) activity includes at least a processor and a memory containing instructions configuring the at least a processor to assemble a training set including a plurality of nucleotide sequence data examples IRES sequences and a plurality of correlated observed IRES activity, partition the training set into at least a first section and a second section, train, using the first section at least an activity data structure to generate probable IRES activity using nucleotide sequence data, and iteratively retrain the at least an activity data structure using the second section, wherein each iteration of the iterative retraining includes generating a predicted IRES activity value using the at least an activity neural network and a nucleotide sequence data example, evaluating an error function, and tuning the activity data structure.
