Overview of E3FP

Introduction

The Extended 3-Dimensional FingerPrint (E3FP) 1 is a 3D molecular fingerprinting method inspired by Extended Connectivity FingerPrints (ECFP) 2, integrating tightly with the RDKit. It is developed by the Keiser Lab at UCSF and maintained primarily by Seth Axen.

For a thorough description of E3FP, please consult the original paper 1 and paper repository or Usage and Examples.
