-Introduction
-============
+# Introduction
 
 This package implements a few different non-Gaussian factor graph inference algorithms, primarily 
-- Multi-Modal iSAM (MM-iSAM) ([see references](http://www.juliarobotics.org/Caesar.jl/latest/refs/literature/)) which does hybrid non-parametric and parametric inference/state-estimation over large factor graphs.  
+- Multi-Modal iSAM (MM-iSAM) ([see references][cjl-docs-refs]) which does hybrid non-parametric and parametric inference/state-estimation over large factor graphs.  
 - Batch Parametric (akin to conventional "non-linear least squares"),
 - Max-mixtures parametric,
 - Other multiparametric and non-Gaussian algorithms are in the works and will be announced in due course.
 
 Fundamentally, inference is performed via the Bayes (junction) tree where Chapman-Kolmogorov transit integral solutions are based on marginal-joint belief estimation (a sum-product / belief-propagation approximation algorithm).  Many benefits such as clique recycling are also available.  See the common Caesar.jl documenation for more details.  [![caesar-docs]][cjl-docs-url]
 
-This package forms a cardinal piece of the [Caesar.jl](https://github.com/JuliaRobotics/Caesar.jl) robotics toolkit, including 3D visualization and database interaction, which can serve as a base station for a robotic platform. A standalone Robot Motion Estimate ([RoME.jl](https://github.com/JuliaRobotics/RoME.jl)) package extends the available variables, factors, and utilities for use in robotic navigation.

 Note, that IncrementalInference.jl **does not** have to be used with RoME.jl / Caesar.jl -- IncrementalInference.jl only implements the algebraic inference operations against mathematical abstractions such as Manifolds.jl.
