Re: [Open Babel] How do I know what's mean of atom type?

I think you give a very good suggestion. I should define my own atom type. There are much more work if if match the atom type between openbabel and opls-aa. I only need to define the atom type in http://towhee.sourceforge.net/forcefields/oplsaa.html and then use SMARTS to match more atom. Very tha

Thank you for your reply. You are right. The atoms type in open babel are not match exactly with opls-aa. Like your suggestion, first I want to approximately match the atom type using openbabel, and then using SMARTS to define more exact atom type in a table. Parden for my poor English. Recards

Hi Noel, Thanks for the update, and also for the slides! Great presentation! Also I appreciate you mentioned our study, as you pointed out this is a win-win situation for both cheminformatic tool developers and database maintainers. We will probably get back with more test results very soon. Rega

Hi Robert, I've gotten the figure down to 120. 69 of the remaining problems (as far as I can tell) are due to differences between how the InChI code and Open Babel handle the situation where you have a tetrahedral center where two of the three non-stereo bonds are very close (in angle) to each ot
