Similarly, blue-yellow motifs should merge into a single defect cluster green). The coarser model should still be able to distinguish between orange, green and purple in order to remain consistent with the general structural and dynamic features of the molecular system. This is similar, for example, to recent works by the group of Clementi where using machine learning approaches they identify dynamically coherent domains in protein models and translate them into coarse-grained models. However, in our case, the use of general-purpose SOAP features as the starting point is better suited to characterize the structure and dynamics of supramolecular polymers that do not possess a predetermined backbone connectivity.
