Book Description

1402013477 978-1402013478 May 1, 2003 XV, 259p.
This book aims to provide an introduction to the major techniques of chemoinformatics. It is the first text written specifically for this field. The first part of the book deals with the representation of 2D and 3D molecular structures, the calculation of molecular descriptors and the construction of mathematical models. The second part describes other important topics including molecular similarity and diversity, the analysis of large data sets, virtual screening, and library design. Simple illustrative examples are used throughout to illustrate key concepts, supplemented with case studies from the literature.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to chemoinformatics, October 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: An Introduction to Chemoinformatics (Hardcover)
This is really a great book. It is well organized and clearly written. The authors do a particular good job of explaining how the techniques discussed work. Having read the book you'll feel you could implement the techniques discussed yourself. I would recommend this book to anyone with moderate knoweldge of chemistry who wants an understanding of the major aspects of chemoinformatics.
