A faster alternative to the EM algorithm in finite mixture distributions is described, which alternates EM iterations with Gauss Newton iterations using the observed information matrix. At the expense of modest additional analytical effort in obtaining the observed information, the hybrid algorithm

This paper demonstrates how the EM algorithm can be used for learning and matching mixtures of point distribution models. We make two contributions. First, we show how shape-classes can be learned in an unsupervised manner. We present a fast procedure for training point distribution models using the
