TABLE 2.

Comparison of a) relative and b) absolute binding free energy differences calculated with transformato, pmx/CGenFF, FEP+ and AMBER-TI with experiment. The root mean squared error (RMSE), the mean absolute error (MAE), both in kcal/mol, as well as the Pearson’s correlation coefficient R, and the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient ρ are listed. For the ΔΔG bind results obtained with transformato in a) we also report bootstrapped error estimates for RMSE, MAE, R and ρ.
