... Lemma: A lower bound on the expected number of probes required by any randomized algorithm to solve the Find-bill problem is (n + 1)/2. Proof: We assume that the bill is located in any one of the n boxes uniformly at random. We only consider deterministic algorithms that does not probe the same box ...

Expectation–maximization algorithm

In statistics, an expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm is an iterative method for finding maximum likelihood or maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimates of parameters in statistical models, where the model depends on unobserved latent variables. The EM iteration alternates between performing an expectation (E) step, which creates a function for the expectation of the log-likelihood evaluated using the current estimate for the parameters, and a maximization (M) step, which computes parameters maximizing the expected log-likelihood found on the E step. These parameter-estimates are then used to determine the distribution of the latent variables in the next E step.
