Convergence of the EM algorithm via proximal techniques

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate convergence of the expectation maximization algorithm by representing it as a generalized proximal method. Convergence of iterates and not just in value is investigated under natural hypotheses such as definability of the incomplete data log-likelihood in the sense of o-minimal structure theory.
