title: A novel set of Wiener indices.
abstract: According to the definition of molecular connectivity and the definition of the Wiener index, a novel set of Wiener indices (mV(t)) were defined, named novel Wiener index. The potential usefulness of the novel Wiener index in QSAR/QSPR is evaluated by its correlation with a number of C(3)-C(8) alkanes and by a favorable comparison with models based on molecular connectivity index and Wiener index.
