Tanimoto Molecular Similarity Experiment
One way to rank and filter molecules from a larger set is to use similarity coefficients. One such way is by using Tanimoto. The experiment below runs similarity tests on a number of molecules using RDKit libraries (http://www.rdkit.org) and Python. Installing RDKit To install RDKit on Ubuntu 14.04 desktop OS, do: sudo apt-get install python-rdkit … Continue reading Tanimoto Molecular Similarity Experiment
