This lecture covers the EM algorithm applied to estimate the lifetime of lite-bulbs with unknown mean. It explains the E-step and M-step of the algorithm, including log-likelihood computation and complete update rules. The lecture also discusses the EM algorithm for heavy-bulbs with a uniform distribution, convergence, and comparison with MLE solutions.
