    This paper studies algorithms to find maximum likelihood estimates given the observed data. The author proves a fundamental result on the rate of convergence of the EM algorithm and ECM algorithm. An example is shown that intuitions accurate for complete-data iterative algorithms may not be trust-worthy in the presence of missing data.
