Hey Marek,
thanks for the quick reply!
While experimenting, I noticed that after learning with EM in GeNIe I never end up with hard probabilities like exactly 0 or 1.
That made me wonder whether GeNIe might implicitly avoid zero probabilities, since hard 0/1 values can cause issues during ...

EM algorithm
Hi GeNIe- Team,
while experimenting with the EM algorithm (Uniformize/ Randomize) in GeNIe, I noticed that a smoothing mechanism seems to be applied.
Is it possible to clarify what kind of smoothing or pseudocounts are used?
Thank you in advance.
