 ===== GSP-Phot vs. SICK =====
+== Conclusions ==
+  * GSP-Phot and SICK overall agree very nicely. No algorithm clearly outperforms the other.
+  * logg: GSP-Phot is slightly better than SICK. SICK may suffer from some convergence problems (red dots below dwarfs).
+  * [Fe/H]: SICK is slightly better than GSP-Phot. GSP-Phot appears to systematically underestimate [Fe/H] by ~1dex for some stars. These problematic stars are fainter than G~15, i.e., SICK estimates [Fe/H] more robustly at lower S/N than GSP-Phot.
 == Test data ==
-  * 2000 synthetic MARCS spectra (4000K-8000K) in Gaia BP/RP. Mostly Main-Sequence dwarfs but also some giants.
+  * 2000 synthetic MARCS spectra in Gaia BP/RP.
+  * Mostly Main-Sequence dwarfs but also some giants.
+  * Teff from 4000K to 8000K.
+  * Test spectra created by GOG. (Not by our own forward models!)
+== Examples of posterior samples ==
+  * Posterior distributions mostly well behaved for BP/RP, i.e., fast convergence, unimodal.
+  * Even in simple case the posteriors cannot be well approximated by a Gaussian.
+  * Rare examples with multimodal posterior.

+== Future tests ==
+  * Compare initial guesses of GSP-Phot and SICK. (Possibly SVM fails for noisy data, which may explain why SICK estimates [Fe/H] better at faint magnitudes.)
