Description

High performance Expectation Maximization (EM) for Gaussian Mixture is compelling because it unlocks scalable, accurate density estimation for modern datasets. Faster E and M steps enable real time clustering, anomaly detection, and soft classification
in streaming and interactive applications. Optimized linear algebra, vectorization, and GPU acceleration reduce runtime and energy, broadening feasibility on edge and cloud. Careful numerical stability, batching, and memory layout improve convergence
and robustness on large datasets. Parallelized responsibilities, batched covariance updates, and efficient mixture normalization increase throughput without sacrificing precision. Such implementations empower rapid model selection, online updates, and hyperparameter sweeps, driving better decisions in diverse range of applicatioons.
