Once a month during the academic year, the statistics faculty select a paper for our students to read and discuss. Papers are selected based on their impact or historical value, or because they contain useful techniques or results. Notes preparer: Haim Bar The Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm was introduced by Dempster, Laird, and Rubin in […]
