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 probl...
