The model-free approach used does not introduce systematic distortions in the computed distance distribution function between two spins and appears to result in noise grouping in the short distance range.

Using the maximum-entropy method, the end-to-end distance distribution of the force stretched chain is calculated from the moments of the distribution, which can be obtained from the extension-force curves recorded in single-molecule experiments. If one knows force expansion of the extension through the (n-1)th power of force, it is enough information to calculate the n moments of the distribution. The method is examined with force stretched chain models, Gaussian chain and excluded-volume chain on two-dimension lattice. The method reconstructs all distributions precisely. The method also is applied to force stretched complex chain molecules: the hairpin and secondary structure conformations. We find that the distributions of homogeneous chains of two conformations are very different: there are two independent peaks in hairpin distribution; while only one peak is observed in the distribution of secondary structure conformations. Our discussion also shows that the end-to-end distance distribution may discover more critical physical information than the simpler extension-force curves can give.
