* Reference ligand

a CScore is a consensus scoring which uses multiple types of scoring functions to rank the affinity of ligands

b Crash-score revealing the inappropriate penetration into the binding site

C Polar region of the ligand

d G-score showing hydrogen bonding, complex (ligand–protein), and internal (ligand–ligand) energies

e PMF-score indicating the Helmholtz free energies of interactions for protein–ligand atom pairs (Potential of Mean Force, PMF)

f D-score for charge and van der Waals interactions between the protein and the ligand

g Chem-score points for hydrogen bonding, lipophilic contact, and rotational entropy, along with an intercept term
