Table 1.

Computed solvation free energy for Minnesota dataset [32]. ΔGw is the absolute free energy of hydration and ΔGcyc the absolute free energy of solvation in cyclohexane, both expressed in kcal·mol-1. A, B, C and D refer to the model described in section 2. MUE and R2 denotes the mean unsigned error (kcal·mol-1) and the determination coefficient for the whole dataset. MUE neutral and R2 shows the mean unsigned error (kcal·mol-1) and determination coefficient for the neutral species only. Model D for solvation free energies in cyclohexane is the same as model B. The notation z- <μ< z+ signifies 95 % confidence intervals computed from the bootstrapping of the data
