  "term": "Path fingerprints",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A type of molecular fingerprint that encodes the presence or absence of specific linear paths of atoms and bonds within a molecule. These paths are typically enumerated up to a certain length, providing a structural representation of the molecule. Path fingerprints are widely used in cheminformatics for similarity searching and machine learning applications.",
