get_fingerprint {DeepPINCS}R Documentation

Molecular fingerprint of compounds from SMILES strings

Description

A molecular fingerprint is a way of encoding the structural features of a molecule. The most common type of fingerprint is a sequence of ones and zeros. Fingerprints are special kinds of descriptors that characterize a molecule and its properties as a binary bit vector that represents the presence or absence of particular substructure in the molecule. For such a fingerprint, the Chemistry Development Kit (CDK) is used as a cheminformatics tool.
