Being a high achiever at work is often synonymous with high standards. High standards set precedents like “I expect to be treated with respect.” But too often, high standards are confused with ...

Abstract: In this paper, we generalize the well-known Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm using the α−divergence for Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). This approach is used in robust subspace ...
