In statistics , an expectation – maximization ( EM ) algorithm is an iterative method to find maximum a posteriori ( MAP ) estimates of parameters in statistical models , where the model depends on unobserved latent variables . |
|
|
|
The EM iteration alternates between performing an expectation ( E ) step , which creates a function for the expectation of the log -likelihood evaluated using the current estimate for the parameters , and a maximization ( M ) step , which computes parameters maximizing the expected log - likelihood found on the E step . |
|
|
|
|
|
These parameter - estimates are then used to determine the distribution of the latent variables in the next E step . |

The EM algorithm was explained and given its name in a classic 1977 paper by Arthur Dempster , Nan Laird , and Donald Rubin . |

After a year of relatively healthy global economic growth , economists are predicting pretty much the same for 2018 -- a neither too - hot nor too - cold Goldilocks scenario , but with little sight of the three bears . |

The idea is that all is pretty much on track for growth that will be stronger than in 2017 . |

Part of this may come from the fact that forecasters generally got it wrong last year , underclubbing this year 's economic performance , particularly for the euro zone and Japan . |
