Split novelty

Held-out molecule novelty

Maximum Morgan(r=2) Tanimoto to any of 60,000 sampled training molecules, over 400 held-out molecules.

statistic value
median 0.509
25th percentile 0.420
75th percentile 0.641
95th percentile 0.778
share with a near-twin (>= 0.9) 0.005
share with a close analogue (>= 0.7) 0.140
share genuinely novel (< 0.5) 0.450

A high near-twin share would mean exact-match scores reflect interpolation between close analogues rather than recognition of novel structures.
