Parameters cutoff for extraction of TRUE Short Tandem Repeats (STR) from lobSTR result

Hi All, I would like to open a discussion to select "true" short tandem repeats (STR) from the results generated by lobSTR. Giving that there are so many fields of the results for lobSTR's output, such as coverage and allelotype confidence score, what would be the best ways to select the true STR from the list of the result? Your comments are appreciated.
