[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-5015) GaussianMixtureEM should take random seed parameter

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5015?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14261936#comment-14261936 ] 

Meethu Mathew commented on SPARK-5015:
--------------------------------------

Instead of using random seed , using the  cluster centers returned by kmeans++ for initializing the means in GMM would be good strategy as implemented in scikit-learn  http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/mixture.html#mixture. What is your opinion ?

> GaussianMixtureEM uses randomness but does not take a random seed.  It should take one as a parameter.
