DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dominikus Noll (IMT)\n\nThe EM-algorithm assures mon
 otone increase of the incomplete data likelihood\, but does not in general
  guarantee convergence of the parameter estimates. We take a fresh look at
  the situation and present novel sufficient conditions for convergence tha
 t are conveniently verifiable in practical situations. Illustrations with 
 typical applications of the EM-algorithm are given.\nKey words: Kullback-L
 eibler divergence\, Fisher information\, exponential family\, proximal poi
 nt method\, definability\, information geometry \n\nhttps://indico.math.c
