Joseph K. Bradley created SPARK-8986:

             Summary: GaussianMixture should take smoothing param
                 Key: SPARK-8986
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8986
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: MLlib
            Reporter: Joseph K. Bradley


Gaussian mixture models should take a smoothing parameter which makes the algorithm robust against degenerate data or bad initializations.

Whomever takes this JIRA should look at other libraries (sklearn, R packages, Weka, etc.) to see how they do smoothing and what their API looks like.  Please summarize your findings here.
