Abstract: The maximum common subgraph (MCS) problem has become increasingly important in those aspects of chemoinformatics that involve the matching of 2D or 3D chemical structures. This paper provides a classification and a review of the many MCS algorithms, both exact and approximate, that have been described in the literature, and makes recommendations regarding their applicability to typical chemoinformatics tasks.

“…A computational method that converts the problem to be solved into a graph characterized by the character of the objects, such the atoms of a molecule or molecules in a database, and the distances between them [37]. Note: Examples are the Ullman algorithm used in substructure searching [38] or the detection of a pharmacophore or a maximum common substructure (MCS) within a set of molecules using the BronKerbosch algorithm.…”

“…An alternative approach to MCS is to reduce the problem to finding a maximum clique in an association graph [2,15,24,40]. An association graph (or compatibility graph, or weak modular product) of two graphs G and H is an undirected graph…”

“…In this paper, we focus on the connectedness constraint, which occurs in many applications [16,22,40,54]. Adding the connectedness requirement makes certain special cases solvable in polynomial time, including outerplanar graphs of bounded degree [1] and trees [14], but the general case remains NP-hard.…”

“…Due to the relative complexity and inefficiency of computational algorithms to search for an MCS, [41] this approach, however, is rarely used to perform a similarity search [42] or to cluster chemical databases. [43] Another type of graph-based similarity measure is that of graph kernels which assign to each pair of graphs a positive real number characterizing similarity.…”
