DeepForest is a library composed of modules (see fig. 1.1), and each module is a set of predefined predicates. Therefore, DeepForest is different from a set of application programs such as ODEN [Ina, 1994]. The Modules were developed to analyze sequence data in my study, and can be divided into four categories.

1.
Modules for tree reconstruction.

2.
Modules for sequence data operation.

3.
Modules for tree superimposition.

4.
Modules for miscellaneous purposes.

We can easily write an application program to analyze sequence data using DeepForest. In addition, each predicate in DeepForest can be directly controlled by giving a script (fig. 1.1).
