A combination of atomic numbers and bond-orientational order parameters is considered a candidate for a simple representation that involves information on both the atomic species and their positional relation. The 504 candidates are applied as the fingerprint of the molecules stored in QM9, a data set of computed geometric, energetic, electronic, and thermodynamic properties for 133 885 stable small organic molecules made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorine atoms. To screen the fingerprints, a regression analysis of the atomic charges given by Open Babel was performed by supervised machine learning. The regression results indicate that the 60 fingerprints successfully estimate Open Babel charges. The results of the dipole moments, an example of a property expressed by charge and position, also had a high accuracy in comparison with the values computed from Open Babel charges. Therefore, the screened 60 fingerprints have the potential to precisely describe the chemical and structural information on the atomic environment of molecules.
