 # Tandem Repeat Annotation Library
 
 TRAL is a highly modularized, flexible sequence tandem repeats annotation Python2/3 library.
 
-  - Large scale annotation of tandem repeats with *de novo* detectors, and sequence profile models
-  - Statistical significance testing, overlap detection, and filtering of annotations
-  - Refinement of tandem repeat annotations with circular profile hidden Markov models
-  - User-defined output formats
