A new iterative initialization of EM algorithm for Gaussian mixture models.

<h4>Background</h4>The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a common tool for estimating the parameters of Gaussian mixture models (GMM). However, it is highly sensitive to initial value and easily gets trapped in a local optimum.<h4>Method</h4>To address these problems...
