extractDrugFragmentComplexity: Calculate Complexity of a System

Description

Calculate Complexity of a System

Usage

extractDrugFragmentComplexity(molecules, silent = TRUE)

Arguments

molecules
Parsed molucule object.
silent
Logical. Whether the calculating process should be shown or not, default is TRUE.

Value

  • A data frame, each row represents one of the molecules, each column represents one feature. This function returns one column named fragC.

Details

This descriptor calculates the complexity of a system. The complexity is defined in Nilakantan, R. et al. as: $$C = abs(B^2 - A^2 + A) + \frac{H}{100}$$ where C is complexity, A is the number of non-hydrogen atoms, B is the number of bonds and H is the number of heteroatoms.
