All Implemented Interfaces:

IFingerprinter

public class HybridizationFingerprinter
extends Fingerprinter
implements IFingerprinter

Generates a fingerprint for a given IAtomContainer. Fingerprints are one-dimensional bit arrays, where bits are set according to a the occurrence of a particular structural feature (See for example the Daylight inc. theory manual for more information). Fingerprints allow for a fast screening step to exclude candidates for a substructure search in a database. They are also a means for determining the similarity of chemical structures.

A fingerprint is generated for an AtomContainer with this code:

   Molecule molecule = new Molecule();
   IFingerprinter fingerprinter =
     new HybridizationFingerprinter();
   BitSet fingerprint = fingerprinter.getFingerprint(molecule);
   fingerprint.size(); // returns 1024 by default
   fingerprint.length(); // returns the highest set bit
 

The FingerPrinter assumes that hydrogens are explicitly given! Furthermore, if pseudo atoms or atoms with malformed symbols are present, their atomic number is taken as one more than the last element currently supported in PeriodicTable.

Unlike the Fingerprinter, this fingerprinter does not take into account aromaticity. Instead, it takes into account SP2 IAtomType.Hybridization.
