Hi all, 

I would like to find out the following. Is it feasible to initialize an Expectation Maximization of Gaussian Mixture Model on the basis of statistics computed from a few training points of each class, perhaps assigning a certain weighting to the original parameters? 

Thank you for your kind consideration.

Best regards,
