Inference of latent variables from complicated data is one important problem in data mining. The high dimensionality and high complexity of real world data often make accurate infe...
The Expectation Maximization EM algorithm is an iterative procedure for maximum likelihood parameter estimation from data sets with missing or hidden variables 2 . It has been app...
