problems building networks based on a database

What about using one of these sites where you type the search term and they return relevant links?

That I'm looking for is information EM algorithm and its operation in genie, as the link you send does not clarify the parameters of the operation or algorithm.

There are two parameters for controlling EM algorithm:

1) 'confidence level'. It's described in the dialog box shown after matching network and data and before running EM; see this thread for more information:

2) 'randomize initial parameters' - this one should be self-explanatory. Note that when randomization is on, you can't specify the confidence level.

I believe in your case you should just use the default EM parameters, since your network has fixed structure and you're learning params from scratch.
