Abstract
A computer-implemented data mining system that analyzes data using Gaussian Mixture Models. The data is accessed from a database, and then an Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is performed in the computer-implemented data mining system to create the Gaussian Mixture Model for the accessed data. The EM algorithm generates an output that describes clustering in the data by computing a mixture of probability distributions fitted to the accessed data.
