Abstract

Recently the idea of using generalized Procrustes analysis for aligning sets of molecules was introduced using standard algorithms. In this paper it is shown that, by tailoring the algorithm to this specific problem, a great gain in computational speed and memory efficiency can be obtained, but even more importantly, by using rotations without reflection, changes in chirality of molecules can be prevented, which was not previously possible.
