@TestClass(value="org.openscience.cdk.qsar.descriptors.atomic.PartialTChargePEOEDescriptorTest")
public class PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor
extends AbstractAtomicDescriptor

The calculation of total partial charges of an heavy atom is based on Partial Equalization of Electronegativity method (PEOE-PEPE) from Gasteiger.

They are obtained by summation of the results of the calculations on sigma- and pi-charges.

This descriptor uses these parameters:

public PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor()
Constructor for the PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor object

Method Detail

getSpecification

@TestMethod(value="testGetSpecification")
public DescriptorSpecification getSpecification()
Gets the specification attribute of the PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor object

Returns:
The specification value

setParameters

@TestMethod(value="testSetParameters_arrayObject")
public void setParameters(Object[] params)
                   throws CDKException
This descriptor does not have any parameter to be set.

Parameters:
params - An array of Object containing the parameters for this descriptor
Throws:

IDescriptor.getParameters()

getParameters

@TestMethod(value="testGetParameters")
public Object[] getParameters()
Gets the parameters attribute of the PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor object

Returns:
The parameters value
See Also:
setParameters(java.lang.Object[])

getDescriptorNames

@TestMethod(value="testNamesConsistency")
public String[] getDescriptorNames()
Description copied from interface: IDescriptor
Returns an array of names for each descriptor value calculated.

Many descriptors return multiple values. In general it is useful for the descriptor to indicate the names for each value.

In many cases, these names can be as simple as X1, X2, ..., XN where X is a prefix and 1, 2, ..., N are the indices. On the other hand it is also possible to return other arbitrary names, which should be documented in the Javadocs for the decsriptor (e.g., the CPSA descriptor).

Note that by default if a descriptor returns a single value (such as ALOGPDescriptor the return array will have a single element

Returns:
An array of descriptor names, equal in length to the number of descriptor calculated..

calculate

@TestMethod(value="testCalculate_IAtomContainer")
public DescriptorValue calculate(IAtom atom,
                                                 IAtomContainer ac)
The method returns partial total charges assigned to an heavy atom through PEOE method. It is needed to call the addExplicitHydrogensToSatisfyValency method from the class tools.HydrogenAdder.

Parameters:
atom - The IAtom for which the DescriptorValue is requested
ac - AtomContainer
Returns:
an array of doubles with partial charges of [heavy, proton_1 ... proton_n]

getParameterNames

@TestMethod(value="testGetParameterNames")
public String[] getParameterNames()
Gets the parameterNames attribute of the PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor object

Returns:
The parameterNames value

getParameterType

@TestMethod(value="testGetParameterType_String")
public Object getParameterType(String name)
Gets the parameterType attribute of the PartialTChargePEOEDescriptor object

Parameters:
name - Description of the Parameter
Returns:
An Object of class equal to that of the parameter being requested
