TF3P: Three-dimensional Force Fields Fingerprint Learned by Deep Capsular Network
Yanxing Wang, Jianxing Hu, Junyong Lai, Yibo Li, Hongwei Jin, Lihe Zhang, Liangren Zhang, Zhenming Liu
Molecular fingerprints are the workhorse in ligand-based drug discovery. In recent years, an increasing number of research papers reported fascinating results on using deep neural networks to learn 2D molecular representations as fingerprints. It is anticipated that the integration of deep learning would also contribute to the prosperity of 3D fingerprints. Here, we unprecedentedly introduce deep learning into 3D small molecule fingerprints, presenting a new one we termed as the three-dimensional force fields fingerprint (TF3P). TF3P is learned by a deep capsular network whose training is in no need of labeled datasets for specific predictive tasks. TF3P can encode the 3D force fields information of molecules and demonstrates the stronger ability to capture 3D structural changes, to recognize molecules alike in 3D but not in 2D, and to identify similar targets inaccessible by other 2D or 3D fingerprints based on only ligands similarity. Furthermore, TF3P is compatible with both statistical models (e.g. similarity ensemble approach) and machine learning models. Altogether, we report TF3P as a new 3D small molecule fingerprint with a promising future in ligand-based drug discovery. All codes are written in Python and available at https://github.com/canisw/tf3p.

Code
Syntology Ran 1 of 1 code samples harvested from 1 repository linked to this paper; 0 have no recorded run. Of those that ran: 1 ran · our draft was wrong.
By repository: official repository: 1 sample from 1 repository, 1 ran. The run record, sample by sample. “Ran” means executed on a synthesized input, not that the code is correct or reproduces the paper.
Repository list and official/mentioned flags are the archive's, frozen 2025-07-28. Reachability, where shown, is from one Syntology probe window (2026-09-16 to 2026-09-18); repositories not probed show nothing. GitHub stars are not tracked.
Code Syntology ran Syntology
1 sample harvested; 1 ran; 0 honoured the contract we drafted; 0 have no recorded run. Read from Syntology's graph 2026-09-24; that is when this build read the record, not when the samples ran.
Licence: 1 of the 1 sample is pointer only, meaning Syntology does not serve that copy's text. This page shows no code text for any sample; each one links to its file in the repository.
Harvested from canisw/tf3p. “Ran” means the sample executed on a synthesized input. It does not mean the output is correct, and nothing here reproduces the paper's results. “Honoured” and “violated” refer to a contract Syntology drafted from the code itself; “our draft was wrong” and “fixture could not drive it” are failures of Syntology's instrument, not of the code.
Each sample ends with its code_sha256, Syntology's identity for that exact code. An agent fetches the stored sample with Syntology's MCP tool get_code(code_sha256="…") (how to connect); click an identity to copy that call.
Repository labels, per sample. official repository: The archive marks this repository official for the paper. named in the paper: The archive records that the paper mentions this repository; it is not marked official. community (archive-listed): In the archive's code links for this paper, not marked official and not recorded as mentioned in the paper. found in paper text by Syntology: Syntology found this repository in the paper's own text; whether it is the authors' implementation is not asserted. community: Not in the archive's code links for this paper; a community repository Syntology harvested. Samples from a repository marked official are listed first. Licence labels name the repository's licence as recorded at harvest. “Pointer only” means Syntology does not serve that copy's text, for one of four reasons: no licence file was found; the licence was not identified; the licence is recorded as permissive but that copy's record is not marked cleared; or the licence is outside the permissive list Syntology serves text under (MIT, Apache-2.0, BSD and similar). Some licences outside that list permit redistribution, such as WTFPL, and GPL-3.0 under its conditions; they are simply not on the list. Hover a licence label for the reason. File links open the file on GitHub at the default branch, which may have changed since the harvest.
