... The information-theoretic approaches allow a quantification of K-L information loss (D) and this leads to the likelihood of model i, given the data, L(gi j data), the probability of model i, given the data, Probfgi j datag, and evidence ratios about models. The probabilities of model i are critical i ...

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.
