+
+## For Statisticians
+
+For those who work on MARSS models. A good place to start might be the chapter at the end of the User Guide on the comparison of KFAS and MARSS outputs and terminology. Comparing the terminology between the two packages should help understanding the MARSS output. Similarly the chapter on StructTS will help understand the difference in notation and terminology.
+
+MARSS is designed to provide access to every possible conditional expectation of $\mathbf{X}$ and $\mathbf{Y}$. "Every possible" means all the temporal conditionings (time 1 to $t-1$, $t$ or $T$) and all the possible standardizations (none, marginal, Cholesky). It will return the standard errors for all of these combinations. The Residuals subsection in the KFAS chapter will compare the residual options in KFAS to the MARSS residuals. The KFAS terminology may be more familiar and a table in that chapter shows you what terminology is associated with what conditional expectation. Note, KFAS and MARSS give the same values. The difference is notation and terminology. 
+
+The EM Derivation paper goes into the nitty-gritty of the underlying EM algorithm. The Residuals paper goes through the Residuals algorithms. All the help files for the functions that implement algorithms have the details for statisticians/developers. My notes on computing the Fisher Information matrix for MARSS are in a series of notes: [Notes on computing the Fisher Information matrix for MARSS models I-IV](https://eeholmes.github.io/posts/2016-5-18-FI-recursion-1/).
