Hi,
I'm trying to cluster a set of molecules based on chemical fingerprints, but now I'm puzzled about the parameter -g(--generate-id). At first, I think the parameter -g was used to generate id for each compound and did not influence the result of cluster. But occasionally, I found that the fact is not like this. For example: I got a chemical fingerprints file using generatemd with parameter -g; and then I run ward two times with or without parameter -g separately;as a result, I got two totally different result of ward.
I don't know if I have done something wrong.
This is urgent to me and I will appreciate your help.
Best regards,
Yolanda
