tral 0.3.5

Detect and evaluate tandem repeats in genomic sequence data.

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

The source code is documented on GitHub IO.
