Isabel Drost commented on MAHOUT-4:
-----------------------------------

EM seems to be an algorithm to general to be implemented only with the use case 
of PLSI in mind. In addition PLSI can be addressed with other approaches as 
well. So, this issue is split into 4 parts. Each of the sub tasks will be 
linked back to this issue so work can go on more focussed on the individual 
features without loosing track of where the discussion came from.

> Create a simple prototype implementing Expectation Maximization - EM that 
> demonstrates the algorithm functionality given a set of (user, click-url) 
> data.
> The prototype should be functionally complete and should serve as a basis for 
> the Map-Reduce version of the EM algorithm.
