5. (3 points) Assume there are two Gaussian components in the GMM; suo, 11,00 and 01
define means and variances of these two components, 79 and (1 — 79) denote the mixture
proportions of the two Gaussians (i.e. p(x) = oN (1,01) + (1 — 10)N (p12, 09).

(a) (1 point) Draw on the figure the directions in which py and 1, will move during
the next M-step.
(b) (2 points) Will the estimate of mg increase or decrease on the next EM step? Explain
your reasoning in one sentence.
6. (5 points) We saw two approaches to solve the sequence prediction problem: greedy and
viterbi. Consider a weather sequence prediction problem, assuming first-order markov
chain. Given that Sunny weather was observed on Day-0, compute the best: possible
weather forcast sequence for the next three days using 1) greedy approach, 2) viterbi
approach.
Hint: For viterbi keep a track of path taken to calculate y4(B), where ya(B) denotes
maximum probability of reaching state A at time step B.

7. (3 points) We saw two approaches for vector quantization, namely: k-means &
Linde-Buzo-Gray Algorithm (LBG). Explain in detail the clustering mechanism
used in these two algorithms, highlighting differences in their approach.
