I am not a specialist in these area, but also feel EM would be more at home with distributions er even statistics than in optimization. best regards, Luc > > Thanks, > Jared > > ________________________________ > Email Disclaimer: www.stjude.org/emaildisclaimer > Consultation Disclaimer: www.stjude.org/consultationdisclaimer > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
