Using diffusion distances for flexible molecular shape comparison

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