IDSS: deformation invariant signatures for molecular shape comparison

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Many molecules of interest are flexible and undergo significant shape deformation as part of their function, but most existing methods of molecular shape comparison (MSC) treat them as rigid bodies, which may lead to incorrect measur...
