On Use of the Em Algorithm for Penalized Likelihood Estimation
Abstract
SUMMARY: The EM algorithm is a popular approach to maximum likelihood estimation but has not been much used for penalized likelihood or maximum a posteriori estimation. This paper discusses properties of the EM algorithm in such contexts, concentrating on rates of convergence, and presents an alternative that is usually more practical and converges at least as quickly.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
