摘要：Inferring molecular structures from experimentally measured nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra is an important task in many chemistry applications. Herein, we present a novel method implementing an automated molecular search by NMR spectrum. Given a query spectrum and a pool of candidate molecules, the matching score of each candidate molecule with respect to the query spectrum is evaluated by introducing a molecule-to-spectrum estimation procedure. The candidate molecule with the highest matching score is selected. This procedure does not require any prior knowledge of the corresponding molecular structure nor laborious manual efforts by chemists. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method on molecular search using 13C NMR spectra.
