Abstract

A method is described for the analysis of the results obtained from the docking studies applied on a protein target and small molecules chemical compounds as ligands from various sources using different docking tools. We show the use of Dempster Shafer Theory (DST) to select the high ranking top compounds for further analysis and consideration.
