## Abstract There has been rapid progress in developing effective and easy‐to‐use tests of the order of a finite mixture model. The EM‐test is the latest to join the rank. It has a relatively simple limiting distribution and enjoys broad applicability. Based on asymptotic theory, the __P__‐value of

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

The maximum-likelihood estimate of a mixture model is usually found by using the EM algorithm. However, the EM algorithm suffers from the local-optimum problem and therefore we cannot obtain the potential performance of mixture models in practice. In the case of mixture models, local maxima often in
