Fuzzy definition of molecular fragments in chemical structures

This paper presents a methodology for seeking the relationships between chemical substructures (molecular fragments) and spectral parameters using a computer collection data of molecular spectra. To establish the spectrum-structure correlations, the program has to search the chemical structure base in order to find compounds containing a given molecular fragment in the molecule. There exists no sole definition of a substructure, as it always depends on the type of problem dealt with. In the problem of structural identification, fuzzy definitions of substructures are applied, and their forms are imposed by the spectral methods used.

Automatic generation of knowledge base from infrared spectral database for substructure recognition

This paper presents a new methodology of chemical substructure recognition by interpretation of an infrared spectrum. The approach in spectrum interpretation is based on the determination of functional groups, which may be present or absent in compounds whose structure is unknown. The process of searching for spectrum-substructure correlation is realized by application of a statistical algorithm. In this method, correlations are generalized and condensed into a set of interpretation rules which are applied to the interpretation of an unknown compound's spectrum in order to predict whether the respective substructures are present or absent in the unknown molecule.
