 **DLKoopman: A general-purpose Python package for Koopman theory using deep learning**.
 
-Koopman theory is a technique to use sampled data, or states, of a nonlinear dynamical system to learn a linear model for it. A linear model is very powerful as it:
-- Gives insight into the dynamics via eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
-- Can leverage linear algebra to easily analyze the system and predict its behavior under unknown conditions.
+Koopman theory is a technique to encode sampled data (aka states) of a nonlinear dynamical system into a linear domain. This is very powerful as a linear model can:
+- Give insight into the dynamics via eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
+- Leverage linear algebra techniques to easily analyze the system and predict its behavior under unknown conditions.
 
 
 ## Why DLKoopman?
-*DLKoopman uses deep learning to learn an encoding of a nonlinear dynamical system into a linear domain, while simultaneously learning the linear dynamics*. We bridge the gap between:

 - Software packages that restrict the learning of a good encoding (e.g. [`pykoopman`](https://github.com/dynamicslab/pykoopman)), and
 - Efforts that learn encodings for specific applications instead of being a general-purpose tool (e.g. [`DeepKoopman`](https://github.com/BethanyL/DeepKoopman)).
